The Pleasant View R-6 Board of Education voted to extend the superintendent’s contract during its meeting on Tuesday night.
According to information provided by Superintendent Rebecca Steinhoff, the board extended her contract by one year to maintain a three-year agreement that runs through 2021-2022 school year. Her salary is to be determined at a later date.
Several reports were presented to the board, including an update on enrollment in the special education program. There are 21 in the early childhood program and 20 in K-8. This is up two from a year ago. Enrollment updates include 34 in the ECSE preschool, down two from last year; 20 in regular preschool, up two from last year; and 95 in grades K-8, up three from last year.
The board discussed the upcoming school year transportation contracts as well as the need to implement a new accounting program, but took no action. The first reading was held on proposed MSBA policy updates. Teachers Kylie Davis and Naomi Meinecke gave updates about their class activities.
It was announced that Danny Westcott and Laurie Frisbie filed for the two three-year openings on the school board, but that no one filed for the open two-year term. Among future dates of importance mentioned were an early out on Jan. 18, school in session on Jan. 21 as a makeup date due to inclement weather and the third quarter mid-term on Feb. 1.
The next board meeting will be at 6 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 11.
