The City Schools of Decatur School Board is looking at three consulting firms to determine who will conduct its superintendent search. The board has heard presentations from McPherson & Jacobson and BWP & Associates during a work session on Feb. 15.
The Decatur School Board, at its Feb. 8 meeting, expressed its intent to offer all full-time employees a one-time $2,000 bonus and make adjustments to the budget to make that possible. The district will receive funding from the state only for the employees it earns through the quality basic education formula.
Education has been a central topic of the 2022 legislative session as bills have been introduced to ban divisive concepts from being taught in schools.
