(KLZA)-- The Pawnee City School District will run the school food program in-house for the 2024-25 school year.
Superintendent Brian Rottinghaus reported to the Board during their June 10 meeting that Taher Inc. has decided not to renew the food service contract with the Pawnee City School District following several years of being unable to generate a profit.
Rottinghaus noted that during the past three attempts to receive bids for food service, Taher was the only company to submit a bid.
The company waived a do-not-compete clause for food service staff allowing the school to utilize the current staff.
In other business the Board approved using Kyle's Service Center of Pawnee City and Speers Truck Repair of Table Rock along with Inland Truck Parts and Service of Omaha to conduct service checks and repairs of student - transportation vehicles for the upcoming school year.
An interlocal agreement was approved with the Nebraska Regional Program for students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing for the next school year.
A proposal from Providence Working Canines for sniffer dog sweeps for the 2024-25 school year was approved. The school district will pay $1750 plus expenses incurred as part of the agreement.
