* Adding additional locker at HS (9th grade center) which were in the drawings but not in the bid specs.
* Additional storage space: 25x30 metal buildings at HS (near football locker rooms), and at Herald & Wilson. About $17k each from building fund.

16) Superintendent’s Report. -- Pat Herald reported on the following topics:
* A 7-person committee (headed by Janice Pollard, and including teachers, administrators and a parent) will be interviewing for the CHS principal position just vacated by Cory Slagle. It is hoped the position can be filled at the June 29th board meet.

Band Directors (L-R): Bruce Roberts, Richard Newhart, Gina Lewis, and Ron Lewis.
* Ron Lewis has requested a move to JrHi director with Richard Newhart stepping up to take over the HS band director's role. There will be some role & salary adjustments but a great team remains in place. Newhart had been with the Collinsville band program before leaving to head the program at Adair and returned to Collinsville in August 2008.
* State announced 1.46% cut in school budgets last week. Will find out soon if it is based on current month or yearly numbers.

17) Announcements.
* CEF Golf Tournament in 1 week
* Bill Rule's last board meet -- thanked for his service to Collinsville athletics. Bill left with a parting comment that the final move to class 5A (football) would mark the beginning of "Bad Times" (in terms of athletic financing & being self-supporting) as Tulsa school fans typically don't "travel well" and revenue from visiting schools would drop depending on the conference (likely Metro Lakes).
* Jon Coleman mentioned that the middle school policies had been reviewed and the corporal punishment option had been removed. The penalties for valdalism had been increased to include possible suspension.

18) New Business: (if any, of an emergency nature or that was not known at the time the agenda was posted). -- none
