Variety of expense items approved by U-46 board


By Seth Hancock
  The Board of Education in School District U-46 approved of $628,352 in expenditure items as well as two curriculum items for Streamwood High School’s Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Action, Design (LEAD) academy at its Monday, April 25 meeting.
  The votes were 6-0, board member Eva Porter was absent.
  The curriculum items were for the business for innovators course, with an estimated cost of $601,090 over six years, and the LEAD Launch course, projected to cost $9,075. Both courses will begin in the 2022-2023 school year.
  The largest expenditure was $210,911 (operations and maintenance fund) with Game Time c/o Cunningham Recreation for playground equipment for Elgin’s Harriet Gifford, Hanover Park’s Parkwood and Streamwood’s Ridge Circle elementary schools.
  The current playsets “are in extremely poor condition due to age and require replacement to mitigate safety issues,” the proposal states.
  With Northern Illinois University, $144,000 will be paid by the nation’s taxpayers through grants for staff to obtain bilingual/English as a second language endorsements.
  Two proposals, both from the education fund with Warehouse Direct, were presented to relocate staff offices at the Educational Services Center, which is being reconfigured. The district will spend $101,271 to move financial operations from the first to second floor and $67,156 to move the teacher effectiveness initiatives and teacher mentor program from the third floor to the first.
  Also, with Warehouse Direct, the district is asking for $74,514 (education fund) to replace 462 elementary school bench-style tables and 594 secondary stool-style tables.
  The district will also spend $30,500 (education fund) with Group Travel Planners to send 40 students from Elgin, Larkin and Streamwood high schools on a summer college tour of historically black colleges and universities in Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee.
  Also approved by a 6-0 vote was $7.9 million in itemized bills.
