Morrice school board to act on K-12 nurse, cafeteria prices Aug. 19
The Morrice Area Schools board's regular meeting agenda lists votes on renewing the K-12 nurse, hiring an elementary teacher and raising adult cafeteria prices, plus discussion of a bond update.
The Morrice Area Schools Board of Education meets Wednesday, Aug. 19, at 6 p.m. at Morrice Jr./Sr. High School, 691 Purdy, according to the posted agenda.
Board President Jerry Dennis is listed to call the meeting to order. The roll call lists Dennis, Wyzga, Iler, Hovis, Hower, Binkley and Moncur.
The agenda lists five action items for a vote: a resolution to approve renewal of the K-12 nurse, a resolution to approve the hiring of an elementary teacher, a resolution to appoint a MASB alternate, a resolution to approve an increase in adult cafeteria prices, and a second reading of policies. The agenda does not list the proposed cafeteria price amounts.
A consent agenda groups four items: the minutes of the July 22, 2026, regular meeting, the personnel report, the 2026-27 course guide, and the 2026-2027 MHSAA membership resolution. Consent items are typically approved in a single vote unless a board member asks to separate one.
Two items are listed for discussion only, with no vote scheduled: a bond update and a reading interventionist for grades 6-12.
The agenda also sets aside time for community comments, a superintendent report and board comments.
The notice states that anyone with a disability who needs accommodation to participate should contact the Office of the Superintendent at 517-625-3142 at least five days before the meeting. The notice adds that the session is a meeting of the Board of Education conducted in public for district business and is not a public community meeting, with public participation limited to the time indicated on the agenda.
What happens next
The board takes up the agenda Wednesday at 6 p.m. Action on the nurse renewal, the elementary teacher hire, the MASB alternate appointment, the adult cafeteria price increase and the second reading of policies would take effect on approval. The bond update and the 6-12 reading interventionist are listed for discussion, which means any decisions on those would come at a later meeting.
