Ida Board of Education


HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING
December 9, 2013

T.H.A.N.K.S. Incorporated will be using the Ida ball diamonds for their Winterfest activities on February 14, 15, and 16, 2014. Tailgaters Helping Aid Needy Kids Spirits gained their non-profit status in 2000 and have been helping kids and families within the community ever since. They specialize in helping kids with terminal or catastrophic illness.

The Board of Education passed a resolution confirming that Ida Public Schools has satisfied all 8 of the 8 Best Practices as defined by the Michigan Department of Education. Therefore, the district will receive an additional $52 per student this school year. The resolution will increase district revenue by approximately $74,360.

The Board of Education authorized the administration to work with a representative from NEOLA to develop Administrative Guidelines to use in conjunction with the newly created NEOLA Board Policy Manual. Together these two instruments will ensure the district complies with all federal, state and local ordinances, laws and regulations. The Administrative Guidelines will provide an excellent framework for the general administrative practices of the district.

Ida Public Schools’ administration is seeking applicants for the following positions:  middle school track coaches, varsity girls’ track coach, high school golf coach and bus drivers.

Once approved, the meeting minutes are posted on the district web-site at www.idaschools.org.
