Mr. Thompson reported on the financials, going over Financial Sheet, Previous Year Chargeables, and Cash Flow Sheets. He reminded board of Special Board Meeting
Tuesday May 25, 2021, at 12:45 p.m. to sell bonds, and touched on the legislative session issues again. He reported that the Board Member Recall seems to be settling down, the POE bill he could see passing, the State School Board Charter School Resolution passed which will allow charter schools to take funds out of public school funds. Schools are suing the OSSBA over this resolution. The State Funding Formula will take effect at the start of next school year. SMPS could lose between $6,000.00 to $12,000.00 in funding. Student Transfer Bill passed so the board will have to create a policy for next year. May 28, 2021 is the end of the legislative session. The school has until May to decide if going to go with OSRMT or OSIG insurance. He will get views on what the surrounding area schools will be doing and report at next board meeting. |
