WHEREAS, the use of ESSER funds must be necessary and reasonable to accomplish a specified and authorized purpose, and is subject to reporting, monitoring, and audit; and

WHEREAS, the law provides that school district may use ESSER funds to address the individual needs of the District necessary in response to the COVID-19 pandemic; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Edgewood-Colesburg Community School District recognizes that licensed staff members have taken on additional duties outside of their contracted hours and contracted job description in order to assist the District’s response and management of the COVID-19 pandemic, including, but not limited to, professional development, training and/or curriculum development for on-line programming, addressing learning loss for students absent due to illness, and covering the duties of absent employees made necessary because of staffing shortages; and

The Board came back into open session at 8:42p.m.

Director Venteicher stated that after reviewing and listening to the comments tonight, the board has reached a decision but they are deeply concerned regarding the pattern of truancy they have seen. It hasn’t been present just this year, but has been a repeated offense. As a board who is entrusted to ensure our students are receiving an education, they are deeply concerned about the number of days that the student has missed. There is a dangerous precedent being set that will affect the student in their future academic career and their employment beyond that. 

That being said, the inconsistencies in the stories, notes, and reasons, make the board feel that we would be enabling more truant behavior by letting the student receive credit for last semester. BUT as a board, they feel that they are not in a position to undermine the authority of a physician's note excusing these absences. They feel the doctor's note leaves their hands tied and puts the student in a position where their absences listed in the note from the physician are excused. 

Director Kirby moved to approve the student’s credits for the first semester for the classes the student passed. This approval is based on the following stipulations. Per our board policy, moving forward all absent or tardy days must be reported to the school the day of the absence or tardiness. This communication will be via email and will be sent to THREE individuals: Dawn, Rob, and Dan. One or all will acknowledge the receipt of the email. 

Stipulation TWO. Per board policy, any absences over 3 days must be accompanied by a Doctors' note for those specific absences. We will not accept posted-dated doctor notes for absences that are over two weeks old. 

Stipulation THREE. Any deviance from these two stipulations will result in our original motion being rescinded. 

Therefore, our original motion, based on the stipulations listed above, will read Director Kirby moved to approve the students’ credits for first semester for the classes the student passed assuming the aforementioned stipulations are followed. The motion was seconded by Elliot. Motion carried 4-0.

With no further business to come before the board for consideration at this time, Director Elliot moved to adjourn the meeting at 8:47p.m. Director Kirby seconded the movement. Motion carried 4-0.

RESOLUTION FOR REFERRAL INCENTIVE PROGRAM

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Edgewood-Colesburg Community School District (“the District”) recognizes that many school districts across the state are experiencing staffing shortages due in part to the pandemic and its residual effects amongst other factors, and that staffing shortages have impacted the District and its ability to fulfill its mission; and  

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors anticipates that said staffing issues will continue into the 2023-2024 school year and will make hiring and retention for next year increasingly challenging;

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors believes maintaining adequate staffing levels of all positions is essential to its educational mission and that when positions go unfilled it is a detriment to all students as well as other personnel; and

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors believes that, in light of staffing shortages and the coinciding impact upon District operations, it is appropriate and serves a public purpose to provide a referral incentive to staff who identify qualified candidates for open employment positions within the District; and

 

                NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE EDGEWOOD-COLESBURG COMMUNITY SCHOOL DISTRICT THAT:

 

  1. The Board hereby authorizes the Superintendent to facilitate a referral incentive program as follows:
    1. A one-time payment of $250 to any staff member who refers a successful candidate to the Superintendent in writing for any open position and that candidate is hired and completes at least sixty days of employment within the District.  The referral must be made before the candidate submits an application.
    2. A second payment of $250 to the staff member who referred the candidate if the candidate remains an employee in good standing with the District after one calendar year.
    3. The first employee to refer a successful candidate will generally receive the payment. The Superintendent has the discretion to split the payments between two or more employees who refer the same candidate, if appropriate.

 

Director Hoeger seconded the movement. Motion carried 3-0.
