(KLZA)-- The Pawnee City Board of Education voted Monday night to appoint a committee to meet with a committee from the Lewiston Consolidated school to discuss co-oping high school football for the 2022-23 and 2023-24 schedule cycle.
The Lewiston School District proposed the idea to the Pawnee City school District earlier this month.
The Board approved holding a special workshop on October 5 at 6:30 P.M. to solicit feedback from the public about high school football options for the next two-year cycle.
If approved, the co-op would allow the schools to be eligible for the 8-Man playoffs in the next schedule cycle, and remain eligible for the following two year “grace cycle.”
Any decision about a co-op must be made by October 31 and the options include whether to co-op and play 8-Man football; no co-op and return to 8-Man football or option three would be to continue to play Six-Man football.
In other business the Board tabled action on dirt work and a tubing project proposal from Gyhra Construction to repair erosion of the ditch along the northwest side of the campus until the regular October Board meeting.
