(KLZA)-- The Pawnee City Board of Education voted 5-1 Monday night to make wrestling a standalone program for the Pawnee City School for the 2023-24 school year.

This will end the wrestling cooperative with the HTRS School District. It is estimated the operational cost to the Pawnee City School District will be $10,203 compared to the cost to continue with the co-op of $8,143. The estimated first year expenses for wreslting mats and safety pads along with singlets and headgear will be $12,200.

Board member Hope Koester voted against the change.

Board members approved an interlocal agreement between the school and the Nebraska Regional Program for students who are deaf or hard of hearing for the upcoming school year and approved Kyle's Service Center in Pawnee City, Speers Truck Repair of Table Rock and Inland Truck Parts & Service of Omaha to conduct service check and repairs of student-transporation vehicles for the 23-24 school year.

During the Administrators reports it was reported that the Pawnee City School is again participating in the Free Summer Meal Prorgam this summer that provides free lunches to any child 18 or younger. The entire cost of the program is covered by grant funds. The program runs weekdays thru June 30 from 11:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

Between 10 and 25 students have been taking part in the program since it started May 22.
