The Indiana Area school board on Monday will work on a variety of topics, spending a good portion of their meeting on personnel. Included among the discussion will be extra duty assignments, both for computer mediated instructors and for head coaches and their assistants. Head coach positions will be filled for boys basketball, wrestling, winter track, swimming & diving, and rifle. Coordinator positions will be considered for Senior High and Junior High cheerleaders, and for Student Government.
Prior to the full board meeting, the Academic & Extracurricular Committee will meet, at 5:30, and the Policy & Personnel Committee will meet at 6:30, with discussion on a Measles Response Plan and an update on pest management procedures and a Bud Bug Response Plan.
Purchase Line’s board on Monday will consider multiple personnel moves, including coaches and assistants. That includes a head baseball coach and a head track & field coach. There is also a lengthy list of policy updates to consider.
River Valley’s board will meet on Wednesday. The district’s Saltsburg campus will reopen Monday after laboratory results did not turn up any evidence of a widespread mold problem there. Indoor samples showed very low or non-detectable fungal concentrations, substantially below baseline levels. There was one isolated, extremely low-level detection of mold in the LGI Room at the STEAM Academy, which is where board meetings are held, so access to that room will be restricted and remediation will be utilized.
At Saltsburg Elementary, testing showed elevated moisture in several classrooms so the dehumidifiers will continue their work. River Valley will also do some outside work on drainage and grading to improve runoff.
