District U-46 Board passes myriad of expense items


By Seth Hancock
  The Board of Education in School District U-46 unanimously approved, via 7-0 votes, of a curriculum proposal as well as $3.8 million in expenditure items at its May 2 meeting.
  The curriculum item was approval of the yearlong integrated math course for the Streamwood High School LEAD academy. The total cost, including instructional materials from Discovery Math, is estimated at $3,799.
  “The content within this course will give students an understanding of the foundations of Algebra and Geometry, focused around the context of a business theme,” the proposal states. “The topics studied in this course include relationships between quantities; linear and exponential relationships; key features of graphs; reasoning with equations; descriptive statistics; transformations; congruence; and connecting algebra and geometry. Students will experience these topics through a fully contextualized and collaborative learning environment, applying their learning in school-based enterprises, community service projects, and applied business activities.”
  Most of the expenditures were operations and maintenance fund items.
  Those included $1 million for a renovation project at the Educational Service Center, $842,118 for ceiling and lighting replacement at Bartlett Elementary School and Elgin’s Ronald D. O’Neal Elementary School, $602,288 for a bathroom renovation at Elgin’s Kimble Middle and Channing Elementary schools, $494,006 to purchase custodial products (plastics, paper, consumables), $104,495 for fascia replacement at Elgin’s Hillcrest Elementary School and $27,720 for gym floor refinishing at Bartlett’s Eastview Middle School. Also there were asbestos abatements at Streamwood High School ($99,000), Elgin’s Huff Elementary School library ($34,220) and Elgin’s Ellis Middle School library ($28,750).
  From the transportation fund was $474,488 to purchase four 47-passenger school buses which are replacements for “special needs buses that will meet the mileage criteria for replacement,” the proposal states.
  From the education fund was $54,615 to replace radio repeaters and $44,250 with Central Unit School District 301 to allow 30 students access to its veterinary science program.
  Also unanimously approved was $6.8 million in itemized bills.
