In a regular meeting held June 22, the Pepin Area School District Board of Education approved a resignation and updated contracts for administration and supervisors.

Quinton thanked coaches Andy Graf and Matt Smith for their respective work with the track teams.
Buildings and Grounds Committee member Tim Stajkowski updated the board on the June 9 meeting.
Quinton presented the board with a recommendation and bid from the Buildings and Grounds Committee to add space to the storage area on the student parking lot to hold power equipment that is currently sitting outside in the elements, and a separate bid to add a storage area in the cafeteria. The Board approved.
Quinton presented the board with a letter of resignation from Lisa Lind as the district LMC director. The Board approved, with thanks for Lind’s 10 years of service to the district.
Quinton reported there were no incidents of seclusion or restrain of any students during the 2014-15 school year.
Quinton also presented the board with administrative contracts for 2015-17. Rachel Pommerening will move to a 100 percent administrative contract with the restructuring and additional sharing of her position with Plum City. Quinton’s contract has the daily roll added to it, per the Board of Education’s agreement with the restructuring. With no other changes in contract language from last year, and salary amounts in each contract representing a 1.62 percent CPI increase from last year, Quinton recommended the board approve both contracts as presented. The board approved.
Quinton presented contracts for Russ Roundy and Chris Enberg for 2015-16. Quinton stated there were no changes in the supervisor contracts from the previous year, and the new salary amount in each contract represents a 1.62 percent CPI increase. Quinton recommended approval of both contracts as presented. The board approved.
Quinton stated he and Kacey Moline are working to fill the co-curricular vacancies and will bring the final contracts to the July meeting.
The board authorized the business office to adjust the final budget to address any variances in the final budget for the 2014-15 budget year, so to be in compliance with Wisconsin Statute 120.16 (2). The board approved.
Quinton presented the board with the Revenue Limit Worksheet for the 2015-16 school year. Quinton recommended a projected Fund 10 operating budget of $3,735,331 for the 2015-16 school year. The board approved.
Quinton updated the board on where the state budget is at. JFC has yet to vote on the state budget, but unfortunately it appears that the delay is over the Buck’s arena and transportation funding, and not on the lack of education funding or harmful policies that are moving forward.
Quinton stated he has received an overwhelming positive response to the email he asked staff and board to forward to their email lists. Only one response supported the expansion of vouchers, and this was in the name of competition.
Quinton stated that competition is fine, but the playing field needs to be level, and all schools receiving public tax dollars need to play by the same set of rules, which is not going to be the case in this budget. Private schools will not be held accountable or have to meet the same requirements as public schools, and the fact remains that it is not the constitutional responsibility of our local tax payers to subsidize the private education system.
Quinton stated the auditors will be collecting their initial data July 1.
Quinton also stated he will try to get an estimated final budget number to the board soon.
The board approved vouchers totaling $190,144.13.
The next regular board meeting will be held Monday, July 27, at 7 p.m.
