In other business the board heard updates on various construction projects.
The high school field turf project is slated to begin in May and will take four to six weeks. The tennis court repairs at the high school will begin July 7 and is expected to be completed in two to three weeks.
The new administration building is nearing completion. Superintendent Dr. Rex Ryker expects the site to be ready for occupation after the next board meeting at CHS. Warmer weather has allowed for exterior work around the building to resume this week, including landscaping and patio installation.
In personnel matters, the board:
• Accepted the retirement request for CMS teacher Debbie Brading.
• Accepted the resignations of Diana Verhey, Willson developmental classroom aide, and Grace Vaught, occupational therapist with West Central Indiana Special Services Cooperative.
