The Exira-EHK School Board voted to retain Kevin Petersn as President and Tamie Fahn as Vice President. Superintendent Trevor Miller said their meetings will stay the same: the third Monday of the month at 6-p.m., instead of 7-p.m., which it had been switched to earlier this Summer, due to some schedule conflicts. Miller provided the Board with a construction update, which he said is “Going well” at the Exira building, but there was an issue at the Elk Horn building. The HVAC system had a “hiccup” with the boilers and how they’re set-up. Crews are working on the problem.

As for the skylight in the Elk Horn building, the Board is looking at how they want to proceed with either a repair or replacement. Miller said they will look at all options and determine from there which direction to go. Miller said there was some action taken on personnel matters. They hired Chloe Anthofer as a para-educator at Exira, and Candy Olsen as a para-educator at the Elk Horn building. They will replace a couple of para’s that resigned in August. Terry Weisenborn was offered a Junior High Cross County contract.
