Gary McKee, Bear Lake Realty, is the listing agent for a large piece of property (3.21 acres) located directly north of the Laketown School Campus. McKee asked the Board if the School District has any interest in purchasing the property. The purchase price was not discussed during the regular School Board meeting, but a special Board meeting was held on Friday, June 25, 2021, regarding the land acquisition. As of the preparation of this article no decision has been made.
A motion to adopt the 2021-2022 School District Budget totaling almost $13,000,000 was approved unanimously.
The following individuals will fill the stated classified positions: Janine Kurek – lunch room in Laketown, Jayna Smith, aide at South Rich Elementary School, and Misty O’Mealy, aide at Northridge Elementary. The School District will implement the new early learning program specific to Math. Lisa Cornia will fill the position vacated by Ashley Rex, which position is funded out of South Rich Elementary Trust Lands and involves working with students, under the direction of their teachers, to enhance student learning. Bethany Lundgren will fill the Counseling position that was approved last month.
It is extremely difficult to find substitute teachers. There are many reasons for this, including the current pay structure, which needs to be addressed. Superintendent Dale Lamborn recommended that the pay for substitute teachers be increased, but he suggested that the pay rate not be too close to the rate that is received by aides who are employed daily. There was a short discussion of Policy 603.4, and a motion was approved unanimously by the Board to implement a pay raise for substitute teachers.
