The S & K Lawn Care Contract includes spring clean-up, parking lot sweeping, and weekly mowing for the 2022 season.  Depending on the number of weeks that mowing is required, the value of the contract could exceed $5000 and therefore, requires Board Approval.  The total estimated value of the contract is $6000.  The School has compared these prices to other local companies and determined S & K Lawn Care is the best option based on price, quality, and reliability of service.
