Fences, tenure, roofs and numerous other items filled the agenda of the August agenda for the Cannon County Board of Education.
The board accepted a salary schedule negotiated with Cannon County Education Association for certified personnel. The schedule should generate a 1.1 percent increase in pay.
The board heard an update on the roofs at several schools. The board approved moving forward with the roof bidding process for the high school, Woodland and Woodbury Grammar.
Robert Pitts Short Mountain Principal reviewed plans and bids for a safety fence project at Short Mountain School. The board approved the project pending the approval of a budget for the county by the commission.
The board also approved the repair of one of the school system’s buses.
Due to the county commission refusing to accept the school system budget for the current year, the board of education had the question of revising the budget on their agenda. The board took no action on the question.
Dawn Witty, a third grade teacher at Woodland was granted tenure by the board.
The Board of Education has scheduled a special called meeting for Tuesday, August 27th at 6:30pm to address a limited agenda.
