CAM & Nodaway Valley sharing agreement discussion held Monday
January 7th, 2025 by Ric Hanson
(Anita, Iowa) – The CAM and Nodaway Valley School Districts are one-step closer to keeping their shared superintendent and services agreement. Monday night both district’s Boards of Education met at the CAM High School in Anita, and discussed the mutual sharing agreement currently in-place.
Both Boards previously met last November, after the Nodaway Valley School Board voted to terminate the contract of Superintendent Paul Croghan. Uncertainty followed as to whether or not the Districts would continue their sharing agreement.
During Monday night’s meeting, the Boards were of a consensus that the agreement would continue, minus the services of Paul Croghan, but there are also issues that need to be resolved, such as improved communications between the districts, and a defined percentage of each district’s involvement in the agreement.
The Nodaway Valley School Board will meet January 15th to interview Superintendent search firms. Following that, a joint school board meeting will be held January 22 in Massena, to either formalize a new contract for the district or dissolve the sharing agreement.
