(Elk Horn, Iowa) – The Exira/Elk Horn-Kimballton School Board met in a regular monthly session Tuesday evening. Superintendent Trevor Miller said the Board approved an agreement with the Heartland Therapeutic School in Winterset.

The agreement is year-to-year, and based on a consortium that looks at the qualifications and helps the student find a spot in the program. The Board also approved an agreement with Stalk Chiropractic & Health in Exira, for district transportation personnel physicals.

The Exira-EHK Board approved the sale to the IKM-Manning School District, of a 65-passenger, 2016 Bluebird Bus, with a little more than 52,000 miles on it.

And, the Board approved the hiring of two additions to the Transportation staff – Michael Miller and Daniel Turpin – pending completion of background checks. Superintendent Miller said also, during his regular report to the Board, he mentioned the District’s Certified Enrollment numbers, which were finalized Tuesday (Oct. 15th).

He says it’s a busy time of year for athletics and the FFA. Parent-teacher conferences are coming up Oct. 28th and 29th, as well. Miller said “It’s hard to believe we’re almost through the first-quarter.”
