No decision was made at this time. Principal Soehren reported on the sports co-op meeting she attended with South Heart and Belfield. Burian vol- unteered to serve on this committee to represent Billings County School Dis- trict. Certification status for both schools was approved by DPI. Testing of students is currently being imple- mented. Soehren also reported on the realignment of staff at both schools-due to enrollment changes and the individu- alized needs of students. Lynn Jorda resigned as teacher's aide in Medora. Amanda Costas was reassigned as the pre-school aide. Another half day of aide time is needed at Prairie. Arthaud moved, Burian seconded, to approve adding another half day for the part- time teacher's aide at Prairie. Roll call vote was taken with all in favor. Business Manager Simnioniw re- ported that the propane tanks and fuel tanks at DeMores and Prairie were in- spected. She is waiting for the inspec- tion report from O-Day, the company that provided inspection services. Ini- tial indications are that anode bags may need to be installed to protect the tanks from corrosion. The business manager requested additional office help for the Medora of- fice. Both Simnioniw and Peterson are working well over 40 hours in a week. An Office Assistant would do general of- rice duties and would also be trained to do payroll and accounts payable, al- lowing for backup for these two vital work efforts. Burian moved, Reis sec- onded, to approve hiring part-time office help up to 29 hours per week. Roll call vote was taken with all in favor. Reis, Arthaud, and Simnioniw re- ported on information received at the N DSBA conference. NDSBA dues will be increasing by approximately $236 for next year. Discussion was held on the need for BCSD board attendance at Belfield School District meetings. It was the general consensus that it may not be of vital importance but BCSD board repre- sentation will continue when possible. Reis discussed concern with the li- brary services schedule. With bookmo- bile services scheduled two Mondays per month at each school and with sev- eral holidays falling on a Monday, there are large gaps in service. This will need to be considered when negotiating next year's service agreement with the Dick- inson Public Library. The board expressed appreciation for the service Kasey Malkowski pro- vided in orientation for the new mainte- nance person, assistance with air conditioning problems at Prairie before the maintenance position was filled, and assistance with a security issue. Simnioniw reported that the eaves at Prairie are in need of repair. The board agreed that Heritage, Inc. should be contacted to provide an estimate for that and several other small repair proj- ects at Prairie. The meeting was adjourned at 7:45 p.m. Darren Baranko, President Tammy Simnioniw, Business Man- ager (November 21)
