III.A. Superintendent's Report
Discussion:
Mr. Karpe gave the superintendent's report. He updated the board on the new handicap ramps on campus. All metal ramps have been replaced with safer, cement ramps. Mr. Karpe went over the transportation report. Transportation cost continually decrease because the bus fleet is newer and needs less maintenance. We are still waiting on the new suburban purchased last spring. We hope to receive it soon. Also, we are looking into buying a handicap accessible van. This could be used instead of a full size bus when handicap students need to be picked up. The van can also be used by activity groups when traveling with a smaller group. Mr. Karpe informed the board of plans to provide a STEM lab for all grades. He is working with each building to determine the needs of each building. He also stated he is looking into hiring a Spanish teacher in the future. Acellus is are only option at this time. Mr Karpe went over the utilities report. The electric has increased from last month. This is due to the after school program.
