Business Office Report
Districtwide Feasibility Study:
The study was organized based on requirements from the PDE Planning and Construction Department for a districtwide feasibility study.
Jeff Straub and Grace Heiland of Crabtree, Rohrbaugh and Associates explained the overall structure of the study so that the board can reference the material and focus on certain sections regarding large decisions that the district may have to make; most notably, the condition of the elementary schools, middle school and how enrollment is affecting the district.
The board recommended holding future work session meetings to discuss the feasibility study. The next meeting is scheduled for April 6, 2022 in the Senior High Library.
There was no new business.
Ms. Hartman declared the meeting adjourned at 8:36p.m.
Autumn Fiscus, Board Secretary
