NORTH ROBINSON — Recommendations for updates to the records retention policy at Colonel Crawford Local Schools was approved during a board of education meeting Monday evening.

Superintendent Todd Martin said the administration wants to stay on top of ridding the school buildings of old textbooks and records that are no longer needed.

“Things like old Algebra textbooks from 2008, attendance notes from two years ago and old emergency cards we want to be able to shred instead of storing them,” Martin said.

Martin said the district’s Record Retention Committee is working to ensure that only records or books in compliance with state requirements are destroyed.

The board approved the recommendations along with the following:

  • Several Saturday school supervisors for the current school year.
  • The FY18 membership contribution of $600 payable to the Crawford County Family and Children First Council.
  • The Colonel Crawford Music Boosters to be paid $100 per game for four varsity football games to clean up at the stadium.
  • Nursing services in the amount of $435 for the upcoming Washington D.C. trip.
  • The district will pay half of the expense for each of six chaperones to attend the Washington D.C. trip at a total of $1,305.
  • Senior Capstone Handbook.
  • The financial statements by the treasurer along with a transfer of $92,015.56 from the food service fund to the general fund.
  • A $2,000 payment to the Crawford County D.A.R.E. Program for supplies and other items to operate the program.
  • The low bid by Kelso Home Improvement to replace the roof of the stadium weight room and locker rooms at $18,000 plus a snow retention system for under $1,000.

The next board meeting is Oct. 22 at 7 p.m.
