Mr. Hatch explained the item was a correction to the contract approved in December: during negotiations the district intended to contract for 80 working days but staff later determined the correct count is 81.
"We did our very best to calculate how many days that would be... during the negotiation we determined it was 80 days. But when we met with the staff, they're like, 'It's 81 days.'" Mr. Hatch said, and recommended amending the contract to change the day count and add the related compensation.
Board member Smith moved to approve the first amendment to the superintendent's contract to correct the number of working days for the 2025-2026 contract year; Board member Berry seconded the motion and the board approved it by voice vote.
Board members framed the change as a technical correction rather than a substantive new obligation; no additional salary figures or long-term contract changes were discussed at the meeting.
Next steps: the district will execute the amendment to the superintendent's contract to reflect 81 working days and corresponding compensation.
