The Indiana Area School Board meets tonight with a largely routine agenda focused on several personnel issues and field trip requests.
Other notable concerns tonight will include a review of the transportation proposals for the next school year and a motion to enter into an agreement with the Pennsylvania School Business Officials group for a third-party review of the proposals. And the board will take up the listings of real estate taxes that have been liened. They total over a million dollars, with White Township leading the way with more than $482,000 in outstanding taxes. Indiana Borough is next, with more than $337,000 in overdue taxes. Armstrong Township has more than $174,000 outstanding, and Shelocta Borough has properties on which over $8,000 is overdue.
Purchase Line’s school board also meets tonight, with a number of fall coaching positions on their voting agenda, including football, volleyball, and cross country coaches.
Both school boards will consider participation in the ARIN Intermediate Unit 28 Regional Wide Area Network Consortium to provide internet service to the respective districts for five years, beginning this July. ARIN administrator Jim Wagner spoke to the Purchase Line board at their planning meeting last week and is scheduled to speak to the Indiana board tonight.
