The Board voted to authorize Evans to move forward with finalizing the bid documents, advertising and setting a bid opening date.

In other business, Evans says the Board approved several course proposals for Sabetha High School for the next school year.  

Evans says the Board approved a request from teacher Katie Topp to offer a music theory class.  In addition, he says they approved pathway changes for the Ag Department to offer horticulture and advanced plant and soil science, making further use of the new greenhouse.

Evans says the Board also received for first reading a policy adjusting graduation requirements at Sabetha High School.

He says the Board is examining a request from SHS science teachers to adjust the sequence of courses at the school.

The proposal calls for the flexibility to teach biology to freshmen and for sophomores to chose between physical science and chemistry.

Currently, freshman are required to take physical science and sophomores are required to take biology.

The Board will consider approval of the policy change at their January meeting.
