Creston Community School District                         
Board of Directors Meeting
November 22, 2021

Board Working Session

The president asked the members and audience to face the flag for the Pledge of Allegiance.

The Board of Directors of the Creston Community School District met on Monday, November 22, 2021, with the Education and Facilities Advisory Committee.  The meeting was held in the boardroom and started at 6:00 p.m. Dr. Brad James, President, presided and the following answered roll call:  Don Gee, Amanda Mohr, Sharon Snodgrass, and Galen Zumbach.

Administrators present:  Callie Anderson, Brad Baker, Scott Driskell, Bill Messerole, and Deron Stender.  

Representatives from KSIB and the Creston News Advertiser were in attendance.

Zumbach moved, Snodgrass seconded, to approve the agenda.  Motion carried 5-0.
 
Board and committee introductions were made. Eric Beron from DLR presented the findings of the work from the Education and Advisory Committee.  Travis Squires from Piper Sandler presented district finances, projections, and fiscal options for renovations and additions to educational and activity spaces.  Members of the committee and board asked questions and discussed the impact and options of proposed models. The consensus of those in attendance was to transition to a model that supports renovations and contraction at the elementary/middle school and high school; this would result in transitioning students and staff from the Early Childhood Center to the elementary school.  The board suggested a special meeting be held prior to the December 20 board meeting to further discuss options.

Zumbach moved, Gee seconded, to adjourn the meeting at 8:50 p.m.  Motion carried 5-0.
