At its June 9 meeting the School Town of Speedway Board of Trustees approved a series of routine but budgetary significant items, including service contracts for nursing, student transportation and athletic trainer services; a small professional-development renewal with the University of Notre Dame; and multiple personnel actions.
The superintendent presented results from three requests for proposals and recommended awarding nursing services to Shalom, sports medicine services to Select Physical Therapy (one athletic trainer) and transportation to Miller Transportation. He said Shalom’s nursing proposal was approximately $230,000 in year one (with higher second- and third-year figures presented) compared with a substantially higher bid from Hendricks Regional Health. For transportation, Miller’s three-year pricing was presented as $204,960 for year one, $207,888 for year two and $210,816 for year three. The superintendent asked the board to "authorize the superintendent to continue to work with counsel to finish the deals with Shalom, Select Physical Therapy and Miller Transportation," and the motion passed 4 to 0.
On sports medicine bids, the administration said Select Physical Therapy proposed a single athletic trainer with a three-year proposal presented as about $55,000 in year one, $56,650 in year two and roughly $58,350 in year three; Hendricks had proposed two trainers at a higher combined price. Administration framed the Select bid as adequate for district needs and a lower-cost option.
The board also unanimously approved continued participation in the University of Notre Dame’s Advanced Placement Teacher Investment Program at a $1,250 annual cost, continued institutional memberships (including the Central Indiana Education Service Center and the Indiana School Boards Association), and a block of employment contracts for administrators, home-school advisors, a graduation coach and the nurse. The personnel report presented by Mr. Disney listed several resignations (including a Spanish teacher and custodial staff) and multiple recommended hires and volunteer coaches; the board approved the personnel report 4 to 0.
Trustees were also presented with a 2027 budget development calendar, with staff planning to begin the capital asset plan on July 14 and deliver a full budget package in August. Grants totaling $241,257.06 were acknowledged on the consent agenda. The meeting closed with a call to approve claims at 8:00 and no additional substantive items.
Votes at a glance: approval of minutes (recorded as 3–0 due to absences), authorization to finalize the three service contracts (4–0), AP program renewal (4–0), institutional memberships (4–0), employment contract approvals (4–0), and personnel report (4–0).
