The board then moved to amend the 2023-2024 school calendar to include a full-day teacher professional development day for Wednesday, May 8, 2024, as well as bus routes for the 2023-2024 school year.
The board then moved to appoint Scott Rupp to serve as Delegate and Brent King as Alternated Delegate to the Ohio School Boards Association Capital Conference.
The treasurer’s report was heard next, with it being stated that income tax came in 7% more than last July and that the school is working on digitizing all student records with the class of 2022 and 2023 still needing done.
The superintendent then went on to recommend that the board authorize a contract with Energy Optimizers.
Energy Optimizers is a company that is going to come in and replace all interior lighting with LED which will save the school some money in the long run.
