Lincoln Way Community High School District 210 board members approved administrative restructuring and salary increases for non-union clerical support staff during closed session actions Thursday night.

The board unanimously approved both measures after returning from a closed session discussion about personnel matters. No details about the administrative restructuring were provided during the public portion of the meeting.

The personnel actions were among several routine matters addressed by the five-member board, including the reappointment of Michael Duback as district treasurer for fiscal year 2026.

Service Agreements Renewed

The board also approved continuing service agreements with Lincoln Way Area Special Education District 843, including a $43,200 operations and maintenance agreement for the 2025-26 school year. The district provides inspections, mechanical issue evaluations, bid document development, fire safety compliance oversight, and contractor support to District 843.

Additionally, board members approved an addendum to continue using the McKay Education Center for the district’s bridges program during the upcoming school year.

Facilities and Transportation

In other business, the board approved a seal coating and striping bid recommendation for Dendler, the only company to respond to the district’s request for proposals. Facilities staff contacted eight potential bidders for the work covering all three high school buildings and the transportation facility.

“Dendler was the only one to respond, but that has been the case for the last four or five years,” Duback noted. “Chuck and I feel that’s really a result of the time of year and how busy those contractors are at this point.”

The board also approved out-of-state travel requests for Lincoln-Way West cheerleading to Kenosha, Wisconsin, in July 2025, and Lincoln-Way Central chorus to New York City in April 2026.

Student activity funds showed a balance of $2.4 million at the end of May, with revenues of $347,000 and expenditures of $172,000 for the month.
