Financial Reports

Correspondence to the Board and Accommodations:

Rationale:  Potential next steps: 

1. Mr. Fakler would take the preliminary drawing/elevations and add details.
 
2. That final drawing would be sent to three engineers. Each would prepare their drawings based on what Michael sent them:
- Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing
- Structural
- Civil 

Once the engineers are done, the proposal can be approved by the board and sent out for bids. Michael said that once the project is put on his schedule, it is a 4-month process. He has several projects on his calendar, so if the board approved moving forward in June, the soonest we could build is next summer. If we wanted to do the project in phases (shell first, then add to interior later), we would need to let them know at the beginning of the process.

Approximate cost to prepare the proposal is $80-90K.

KSB provided construction financing options 
 

Rationale:  Freeman will have 12 probationary certificated staff in 2022-23. The Freeman administration is recommending a change to Policy 4030. The change would be to evaluate permanent certificated employees once every two school years. 

A certificated administrator, with the exception of the local board of education when it is evaluating the superintendent, will observe and evaluate each probationary certificated employee for a full instructional period once each semester and each permanent certificated employee for a full instructional period once each every two school years.

Rationale:  KSB Policy 6037 is an optional p[olicy in their 2022 updates. The board can decide whether to adopt it. 

Rationale:  Steve Adkisson has been offered the position for the 2022-23 school year and has accepted pending board approval. 

Rationale:  Districts may be required to use the PLE tool to determine meal prices. Freeman was not required to use the tool for the 22-23 school year. Milk increased in cost by approximately 48%.

Breakfast	$1.95
K-6 Lunch	$2.95
7-12 Lunch	$3.25
Adult Lunch	$3.25
Extra Milk	$0.35

Recommendation: No change to meal prices. Increase the price of an extra milk to $0.40

Rationale:  For 2021-22, student fees were set at $70 for JH and High School students.
