EACSD Board of Directors accepts resignation of head baseball coach during regular monthly session

by Susan Cantine-Maxson

A brief regular meeting of the Eastern Allamakee Community School District Board of Directors was held at Kee High School Monday, January 16, despite icy weather conditions that gripped the area that evening. With those weather conditions in mind, a Zoom video internet connection was used to network some of the Board members and school administrators into the meeting who were unable to travel.

The meeting was called to order by Board President Heather Schulte, with Board members Bobbie Goetzinger, Melanie Mauss, Kelli Mudderman and Bruce Palmborg in attendance, along with Superintendent Dr. Dale Crozier and Board Secretary Marian Verdon. The Board approved Authorizations which  included the January consent items, minutes of the December meetings, bills for January, Secretary’s Financial Report for December, and the Student Activity and Food Service December Reports.

Heather Schulte was appointed by the Board as its member representative to serve on the Allamakee County Assessors Conference Board. The Board also accepted the resignation of James Mauss as head coach of the Kee High School varsity baseball program. Approval was also given to a change for the annual Senior Awards Night event to a Wednesday night this year.

Superintendent Crozier said that the school district had recently received the Iowa Report Card recognition which shows how each public school is performing on certain educational measures. He will be further addressing areas indicated within the report with those involved in those areas within the district.
