04/14/2016

(KLZA)-- The Johnson-Brock Board of Education voted down a motion to purchase a used Coach bus for district activity use when they met Monday night.

A motion to purchase the Coach Bus lost on a tie vote 3-3. Board members Paul Moerer, Steve Clark and Lonnie Neddenriep cast yes votes. Casting nay votes were Board members David Bohling, Keith Bohling and Darren Oestmann.

Prior to the vote, Superintendent Jeff Koehler had provided the Board with information about purchasing a Coach Bus.

Students from Dan Gossman’s Government Class shared information on a community service project they are working on with University of Nebraska at Lincoln Citizenship students. The “Golden Eagle” program will be a community service club that will focus on elderly residents and keeping them involved in the community. Various fund raising events will be held to fund their activities.

Principal Lucas Dalinghaus discussed FFA and Spanish distance learning options with the Board. Later an interlocal agreement with the Sterling Public Schools for Spanish instruction through the distance learning network was approved.

Also approved was the 2016-17 Special Education Services contract with Educational Service Unit #4 in an amount of $126,745. A contract for Enrichment Activities with the Lincoln Public Schools for the 2016-17 school year for services for students who are deaf or hard of hearing was also approved.
