SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT:

Representatives from the Athletes Advantage and St. Joseph's Hospital presented information regarding ImPACT screening/program. Jamie Wagner explained that this program will provide a baseline testing, diagnosis, and return to play program for Central athletes.

We still have 32 seniors that have outstanding bills. Over the next few weeks, Mr. Meyer will be speaking personally with those Senior students and their parents. All must have these resolved in order to participate in the graduation ceremony. We have also sent the final reminder letters to others with outstanding bills clearly stating the terms of late payment fees which will be assessed at the end of the school year.

The 17th Annual Clinton County Academic Excellence Banquet will be held at 7:00 P.M. on Wednesday, April 29th at 7:00 P.M. at the Albers American Legion. Central has fourteen students and their parents who will be recognized at the event. It is also Central's turn to host the event and we have obtained this year's keynote speaker (David Michael). This is a great opportunity each year to reward and bring attention to those students who achieved great academic success.

The Summer 2015 Project is proceeding with the completion of building permits and appropriate paperwork. We will be holding a pre-construction meeting with Lowry Electric over the next few weeks to coordinate plans. Joe Lampe has been meeting with Lowry Electric to answer questions. We have also been working on schedules here at Central to work around the project. (This is especially true in the gymnasiums for summer camps and workouts.) This project could also affect some work schedules and activities here at the school.

Earlier this year, we discussed the transfer of some Working Cash Fund reserves to our Operations and Maintenance Fund. This was considered in order to offset some of the large payments made last summer on the roof project and previous projects. Even though our O & M Fund is holding fairly strong, we will not have the reserve in it for the upcoming project, summer work, and reserves going into next year that we prefer. A motion to approve resolution to authorize abatement of working cash funds to O&M funds of $250,000 was made by Mike Strieker, second by Tim Richter. Roll call vote: Aye -Mike Nettemeier, Tina Winkeler, Mary Lou Voss, Mike Strieker, Kris Rickhoff, Tim Richter. Nay - None

Mrs. Wiegmann discussed the direction of our programs for the summer and into next year in detail. The condition of our technology program is in great shape but we will be making some purchases to maintain and grow the system. We are also doing some extensive procedural things this summer that will have an effect upon operations. A motion to approve 15-16 technology plans and purchases was made by Kris Rickhoff, second by Tina Winkeler. Roll call vote: Aye -Mike Nettemeier, Tina Winkeler, Mary Lou Voss, Mike Strieker, Kris Rickhoff, Tim Richter. Nay - None
