K-M School Board rejects resolution solidifying status as non-employees

The Kasson-Mantorville School Board rejected a resolution specifying that board members aren’t considered employees of the district during its November meeting.
“In speaking with our legal counsel most school districts do this and it’s just a way to make separation between board members and the employment of the district,” Superintendent Ted Ihns said.
The proposed resolution stated:

WARRANTS: The following individuals have active warrants in Dodge County. The Sheriff provides this information as a public service

Benjamin Joel Bumpers – probation violation – body only
Luis Alberto Cantu – criminal sexual conduct – body only
