At Monday night\u2019s monthly meeting, Superintendent Kathy Mollenkopf told board members the one bus that didn\u2019t pass has a faulty gas tank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to be the first bus to go when we trade in, so we\u2019re not going to repair it because it would be cost-prohibitive,\u201d Mollenkopf explained. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the public participation portion of the meeting, local resident Brandon Speaks expressed a desire to see clean boundaries at the former Vancrest of Convoy property — the home of Crestview\u2019s future early childhood center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaks noted the property on East Tully Street has a number of jagged boundaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf we can manage to find a way to create a clean, straight line from end to end, I do believe that it will look much better back there,\u201d Speaks said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The board was scheduled to go to the site to look at the survey markers, but the trip was postponed due to rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a related move, the board approved a resolution authorizing lease-purchase financing for renovations to the ECC, which is scheduled to be ready in time for the 2020-2021 school year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several agenda items were given unanimous approval, including prices for lunches, athletic tickets, student workbooks, and Latchkey fees, along with bus routes for the 2019-2020 school year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Board members accepted the resignation of middle school paraprofessional Jessica Gamble, and the board approved an amended contract for technology coordinator Shane Leeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The board also approved a number of supplemental coaching contracts for the 2019-2020 school year, including the following: Jim Wharton, baseball; Carl Etzler, softball; John Rosebrock, track and field; Becky Macki, assistant softball and girls\u2019 junior varsity basketball; Randy Grandstaff, Rachel Alvarez, and John Gabriel, assistant track; Terry Crowle, baseball assistant; Gregg Mosier, junior varsity baseball; Morgan Hicks, junior varsity softball; Kory Lichtensteiger, freshman football; Mackenzie Ray, high school basketball cheer coach; Lori Hammons, eighth grade softball; Doyle Sheets, eighth grade baseball; Maddie Hagaman, seventh grade softball; Adrienne May, middle school track, and Jake Sawmiller and Aaron LaTurner, middle school wrestling coaches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volunteer coaches approved include Chase Clark, football; Bob Perkins, softball; Danica Hicks, junior varsity softball; Matt Perkins, baseball; Taylor Evans, eighth grade softball and Kirstin Hicks, seventh grade softball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next meeting of the Crestview Local Board of Education will be held at 6 p.m. Monday, August 26, in the district conference room.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
