Greenfield appointed to NEH school board

BLAIRSBURG - At its regular monthly meeting on June 14, the Northeast Hamilton school board appointed Randy Greenfield to serve the remainder of the director district 5 position vacated by Nate Palmer.

Greenfield will serve until the next regularly scheduled school board election in September 2013. According to board policy, former Vice President Kim Schaa will now serve as board president for the duration of Palmer's vacated term. Roxanne Anderson was elected board vice president.

In contractual business, the board approved contracts for Joan Gelder who will teach three kindergarten through eighth-grade art periods daily, John Seiser will serve as head boys basketball coach and Bret Schutt will serve as head girls basketball coach.

The board accepted the resignations of Kim Schimp as play co-director and co-assistant director, Mary Harreld as bus driver and Ashley Davis as play co-director and co-assistant director and co-prom sponsor.

Principal Patrick Hocking reported on the progress of partial day sharing with Webster City. An informational letter was sent home with 9-12 grade students concerning the student schedule and staff.

Hocking also reported that busses will leave NEH at 7:50 a.m. and students arriving after that time will have to be transported to Webster City by parents. Because of the bussing schedule, NEH will no longer schedule late starts for the beginning of the day, said Hocking. Instead, abbreviated days will include an early dismissal.

Hocking reported he will meet with Webster City personnel this week to discuss orientation and to establish snow day protocol.

The board approved the low bid from Sara Lee for bread and the low bid from Roberts Dairy for milk products.

United Coop was granted the firm low bid of $2.68 per gallon for gasohol and the firm low bid of $3.14 for diesel. Also bidding were Heartland, Star Energy and Doolittle Petroleum.

Star Energy was awarded the contract for the low bid of $1.00 per gallon for propane. Also bidding were Heartland and Innovative Ag Services.
