Rationale:  Mr. Streeter notified me on May 7th, that he was offered and accepted a teaching position in Gothenburg.  This opportunity provides Mr. Streeter with a change to move closer to home and his father.

The opening has been posted in Teach Nebraska, and we have already had some interest in the position.  In addition to social studies, the Head football position is also currently open.

Rationale:  Executive Summary:

• Review of proposed bids and specs.
• Discussion of removal of, and disposal of current bleacher system.

Rationale:  Executive summary

I have been approached by Mr. Bosak about starting an e-sports club at SEM.  Upon first reading of the title, I thought he was kidding, but after reading the information he had, and researching the e-sports opportunities, I do believe that it would be highly beneficial to several of our students, and it is will help promote the positive use of technology. 

My first concern was just being kids playing games, but as I investigated more, there is more to it than that, and has a strong potential for college scholarships.  At this time I do not have an exact cost, and an not even sure how we would make this all work.  If the board is interested in hearing more we will develop a plan for consideration.

Rationale:  Executive Summary:

I have been apart of the design and build project on two weight rooms, not including this project.  It is my advise that we keep the weight room simple WITHOUT a lot of machines.  The ideal weight room would have several power racks, and a few smith machines.  With the addition of a set of dumbells all athletic, rehabilitative and conditional lifting can be completed.  In addition, the free standing racks take very little maintenance have a very low need for repair or replacement. 

All weights and benches and bars will be universal and can be used at all stations.

In addition, recreational/fitness items like treadmill and stair stepper will be located in the weight room.

All individual fitness needs will be taken care of within the weight room.  There will be no need for anyone to enter the school building.

Rationale:  My notes were pretty hard to read so I created this PDF for clarity. Here’s what I wrote down as well:
·Strip carpet down to Terrazzo
·Leave lighting in place and install new switching as needed
·Remove insulation above ACT and replace ACT tiles only
·Move sprinkler line to accommodate stage door clearance
·Verify if landing is required on stage door steps
·Install matching BEST hardware, owner to provide cores
·Classroom doors to be wood to match existing
·Stage door to be hollow metal with no window to allow painting to match stage wall
·Coolers will require minimum 3-4 208V , 20 amp circuits
·Trane will install exhaust fan or rooftop unit to handle heat load under our contract to include Kitchen hood
