The Lincolnview Local Board of Education approved personnel items, including several administrative contracts, and also authorized the purchase of a nine-passenger van during its March meeting on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The board unanimously approved the following administrative contracts: Junior-Senior High School Principal Kelly Dye, two-year contract; Marsh Foundation School Principal Roger Salisbury, one-year limited contract; Fred Fisher, district maintenance supervisor, three-year contract; and Eric Miglin, district computer network technician, a three-year contract.<\/p>\n

Other personnel action included approval of a one-year contract to bus driver Rebecca Matthews, while Jeff Krugh was given a new contract as the district\u2019s certified water systems operator. The board also accepted Kevin Longstreth\u2019s resignation as junior varsity baseball coach and approved the following supplemental contracts: Karla Bowersock, junior high softball coach; and Dan Williamson, JV baseball coach. The following volunteer coaches were also approved: Dana Roberts and Jason Adams, junior high baseball; and Dianna Ashbaugh, junior high softball.<\/p>\n

The following substitute employees were also approved by the board on Tuesday: Timothy Schoenle, substitute coach and custodian; Amy Dunlap, substitute bus driver, cook and custodian; Patricia Woodruff, substitute cook; and Jennifer L. Yoh, substitute bus driver.<\/p>\n

Also during the meeting, board members followed Superintendent Doug Fries\u2019 recommendation to approve the purchase of a nine-passenger MPV van at a cost of $39,700.<\/p>\n

Elementary Principal Gordon Stemen was also designated as the district homeless liaison for the 2012-2013 school year. Stemen also talked about kindergarten registrations for the coming school year, noting that 58 students are registered for the 2012-2013 school year. That number includes 18 students who are attending Lincolnview under open enrollment.<\/p>\n

Stemen said the number was down a bit from last year, but said it was well within acceptable parameters.<\/p>\n

Both Stemen and Dye reported on upcoming student testing, including the Ohio Graduation Test.<\/p>\n

The board also approved an agreement with Garmann Miller Associates Inc. to prepare construction and bid documents to resurface the existing track. Fries said the project would cost approximately $60,000. The board also approved advertising for bids for the project.<\/p>\n

Treasurer Troy Bowersock discussed low interest rates received for the renewal of a certificate of deposit, noting that it\u2019s hard to even get a financial institution to make a bid on a CD, and the rates are far less than 1 percent, resulting in declining interest revenues for the district.<\/p>\n

Also Tuesday, board members got into a protracted discussion of the district calendar for the coming school year, with some members wanting to begin school after the Van Wert County Fair, while others favored the current set-up, which was also recommended by the Lincolnview Local Education Association. Fries said he saw positives in going with either option, but added that he would like to see a final decision on the calendar at the April board meeting.<\/p>\n

The superintendent also noted that Board President Eric Germann was honored by \u00a0the Ohio School Boards Association with its Award of Achievement at the OSBA’s regional conference in Milan.<\/p>\n

In other action, the board:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Accepted, with thanks, a donation of $2,000 from the Raymond James Charitable Endowment of the Cooper Family Foundation.<\/li>\n
  • Accepted, with thanks, a $1,000 donation from The Van Wert County Foundation, on behalf of Amvets Post 698 of Middle Point for two senior scholarships.<\/li>\n
  • Authorized summer school for this year.<\/li>\n
  • Approved a resolution commending those responsible for putting on the Drama Club\u2019s spring play, Little Shop of Horrors<\/em>.<\/li>\n
  • Retroactively authorized an overnight trip by the wrestling team to the Division III District Wrestling Tournament at Dayton on February 24-25.<\/li>\n
  • Accepted, with thanks, a payment of $5,000 from Van Wert Federal Savings Bank to benefit the athletic department and athletic facilities.<\/li>\n
  • Went into executive discussion to discuss personnel matters, with no action taken following the session.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The next Lincolnview board meeting will be at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 17, in the district conference room.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
