The Board also unanimously approved several middle school coaching positions:
- Jeffrey Nichols: Baseball

- Dave Melanson: Track and Field
Administrators noted that filling these positions early helps ensure smooth preparation for the spring sports schedule.
In other business, the Board reviewed a request from the East Coast Camaro Club to use the Hills Grounds on August 23 for an event. The Board unanimously approved the request, consistent with past practice of allowing community groups to utilize district property when available.
The Board also approved a budget transfer involving special education accounts. The proposal moved $95,000 from the tuition special services line to the special education professional services line to cover payments to Easter Seals.
Following the transfer:
- The special education services line will have a balance of $66,851.95
- The tuition special services line will have a balance of $181,392.67
Administrators said the adjustment was necessary to align funding with actual service needs for the remainder of the fiscal year.
As part of correspondence, the Board was briefed on a previously approved staff travel request. David Bressler received approval to attend the ACF National Convention from June 28 to July 2, with an authorized cost of $2,700.
The School Board is scheduled to meet again on March 23 at 6:30 p.m.
