(KNZA)--The Prairie Hills USD 113 Board of Education this week heard a proposal for a new three-story press box at Sabetha High School.

Superintendent Todd Evans says the proposal was presented by representatives of the Sabetha Booster Club.

The board voted 5-2 to provide up to $60,000 for the project, with Board members Kent Kuckelman and Jim Scoby voting no.

Evans said the Booster club plans to use district funds along with their funds, donations and advertising to pay for the project.

The Board approved allowing advertising on the press box, subject to final approval of the Board.

In other action, Evans says the Board accepted the low bid from Nebraska-based Pro Track and Tennis for maintenance work at the Sabetha High School track in the amount of $52,340. The firm will seal existing cracks, add an eighth-inch of new rubberized coating along with seal and paint all track surfaces.

The Board approved seeking bids on two roofing projects at the Wetmore Attendance Center. The project will include insulation along with a membrane roof over the older portion of the building as well as the gym.

Evans says the Board also approved adding an additional half unit to existing Parents as Teachers Program, which will serve an additional 4 families in the district at a cost of $875.
