(Anita, Iowa) – The CAM School District’s Board of Education, Monday evening, held a Public Hearing with regard to the proposed Flexibility Resolution, as previously published. Superintendent Paul Croghan told KJAN News the hearing was part of a process to move some Teacher Leadership funds to the Flex fund, which have been accumulating over the past couple of years. Following the hearing, and later on during their meeting, the Board passed a Resolution to that effect, as presented.

The Board discussed with Site Logic, continuing information from the Facilities Committee, with regard to the shrinking of district facilities. The Board voted later on in their meeting to approve a Resolution for petition language – as prepared by the District’s Attorneys – to go to a General obligation bond during the election in November. The petition asks district patrons for permission to move to a one campus classroom addition site, and facility improvements.

During the regular Board meeting that followed a Board Workshop, the CAM School Board voted to approve several resignations and shuffling of responsibilities/positions.

In other business, the Board approved handbooks for the 2024-2025 School Year, bids for Bread, Milk and Chemicals, as well as sharing agreements with the Nodaway Valley CSD for Human Resources, Payroll, Building and Grounds, School Business Official (SBO), and Superintendent. The Board then discussed an improvement plan for the SWAT (Girls wrestling) Booster Club, to make sure things are being done correctly, and that the kids are eligible to play and participate.

The 2024-25 School Year at CAM begins August 23^rd.
