(KMZA)--The Prairie Hills USD 113 Board of Education has approved bids for improvement projects at two Sabetha schools.
On the recommendation of mechanical engineer Scott McKinley, Superintendent Todd Evans said the Board Monday evening accepted the low bid submitted by McElroy’s, of Topeka, for the replacement of the Sabetha Middle School boiler in the amount of $87,950. Evans said it can hopefully be installed before students come back in mid-August.
Evans said the Board also accepted a bid from Midwest Coating, of Topeka, for the replacement of the east wing roof at the Sabetha Elementary School with a tapered roof system at a cost of $91,069. The project should be completed by mid-October.
In other business, Evans said the Board approved a resolution to pay off the bonds for the former USD 488. He said the Board levied the final tax for the bond issue with the 2018-19 budget. The final payment will be made a year early on September 1, 2019.
Evans said discussed was also held on the snow day, make-up policy. He said the discussed centered on whether to increase the allowable days missed from 3 to 4 before making days up.
The proposed change will be discussed again at next month’s Board meeting.
