|
Air conditioning unit #30, at the Elementary building, needs extensive repair. A part broke loose and then broke additional parts. Just Right Heating and Air provided quotes for repair as well as replacement due to the extensive nature of the repairs.
A new unit is typically expected to last 15 years. With the repair, we can expect the unit to last an additional 7-8 years.

| IX. | Policies | |
| A. | Pandemic Plan | |
|
8.05.POL Pandemic Influenza Plan has been revised to make it applicable to all pandemics. The new title of the policy will be Pandemic Plan. As we now have experience with a pandemic, there were some things that were reasonable to adjust as well as some things that needed to be included, like an attendance policy, learning activities, and what staffing would look like during a school closure.
The original policy required the appointment of several individuals, such as an Education Committee/Coordinator. We changed this to Administration. Administration can still appoint someone if necessary; however, the requirement to appoint someone was removed.
