(KNZA)--The Prairie Hills USD 113 Board of Education heard information on a proposed Sabetha High School track and football field improvement project when they met last week.
Superintendent Todd Evans said High School Activities Director Kaleb Moeller shared information that he's been working for a project that would utilize private money to redo the aging track and install turf on the football field. Also as part of the project, the field events would be moved to the south end of the football field.
The proposed $2.5 million project would start in the summer of 2025 and take eight weeks to complete.
A committee, consisting of community members, is working the project.
Following an executive session, the Board approved a negotiated agreement with the Prairie Hills Education Association for the 2024-25 school year following an executive session.
Evans said the agreement would add $2,000 to each step in the salary schedule. The base pay for a beginning teacher would increase from $43,000 a year to $45,000 year.
The Board also approved a compensation package for administrators, which calls for a 4.5 percent salary increase.
