the high school, but if this trend changes we should see enrollment stabilize.”
Dr. Wenzel moved to approve the Achievement Integration Minnesota
(AIM) budget, which outlines spending for the district’s integration revenue
for the coming school year. Associate Superintendent Dr. Jinger Gustafson
noted that the final budget included minor adjustments from the budget
presented at the previous meeting. The percentage of the total budget
allocated for student support went from 77 to 78 percent, while the allocation for staff development dropped from 10 percent to 9 percent. These
changes fall within state spending guidelines for AIM. The AIM budget for
2014-15 calls for revenues of $5.1 million, down just over $400,000 from
the current year. The bulk of the revenue will be spent on a variety of student support programs including specialty schools, student achievement
advisors, the AVID college prep program and more. The budget will now
be submitted to the Minnesota Department of Education. William Fields
seconded the motion. Motion carried.
Bill Harvey moved to approve a three-year contract with newly selected
superintendent David Law, who will succeed retiring superintendent Dennis
Carlson July 1. Board Chair Tom Heidemann said the contract is very similar to the current superintendent’s contract. The salary will remain at the
current level, $180,000 per year, for all three years of the contract; however,
the performance bonus for meeting all board goals will increase from 11
to 15 percent. The contract includes 30 rather than 35 vacation days and
no opportunity to accrue vacation. Marci Anderson seconded the motion.
Motion carried.
The School Board approved termination of four continuing contract
teachers who have been on leave of absence 12 months or more with a
mental or physical disability; none have been able to provide proof of ability to return to work. Identity of those terminated is private data under the
Minnesota Government Data Practices Act.
RESOLUTION PROPOSING IMMEDIATE DISCHARGE OF
CONTINUING CONTRACT TEACHERS
Pursuant to due call and notice, a regular meeting of the School Board
of Anoka-Hennepin Independent School No. 11 was held on the 24th day
of March, 2014, at 6:30 p.m.
Board Member Heidemann introduced the following resolution and
moved its adoption:
WHEREAS, the following persons are continuing contract teachers in
Anoka-Hennepin School District No. 11,
And WHEREAS, for the reasons set forth in Exhibits A,
BE IT RESOLVED, by the School Board of Anoka-Hennepin
Independent School District No. 11 as follows:
1. That the following continuing contract teachers in Anoka-Hennepin
Independent School District No. 11 are immediately terminated pursuant to
Minnesota Statute § 122A.40, Subdivision 13.
2. Written notice be sent to the following continuing contract teachers
regarding the proposed immediate termination in a form identified and
attached as Exhibit A.
3. That each and all the grounds set forth in the notice are within the
grounds for the immediate discharge of a continuing contract teacher.
4. Minnesota Government Data Practices Act, Minnesota Statutes
Chapter 13 and, therefore, the Superintendent is specifically directed to
maintain the private data classification of Exhibit A in accordance with
applicable State Law, including the provisions of Minnesota Statutes
Chapter 13.
5. That the written notice attached as Exhibit A shall be signed by the
Clerk of the School Board and be served upon the following continuing
contract teachers as determined by the Administration of Independent
School District No. 11.

That the motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly
seconded by Board Member Anderson and upon vote being taken thereon,
the following voted in favor: Anderson, Fields, Harvey, Heidemann and
Wenzel and the following voted against: None. Whereupon said resolution
was declared duly passed and adopted.
The School Board approved two resolutions related to staffing for
next year. The first resolution eliminated 108.26 full-time equivalent (FTE)
teacher positions. These reductions are due to staffing efficiencies, fluctuations in course registrations at the secondary level, and uncertain federal
funding. The reduction list includes a wide variety of positions including
elementary classroom teachers, secondary subject area teachers, special
education teachers and teachers on special assignment. Those losses will
be offset, however, by the addition of 32.46 FTE teacher positions.
RESOLUTION DISCONTINUING AND REDUCING
EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AND POSITIONS
Member: Heidemann introduced the resolution and moved its adoption:
WHEREAS, the School Board of Anoka-Hennepin Independent School
District No. 11 has directed the administration to make recommendations
for reductions in programs and/or positions, and
WHEREAS, said recommendations have been received and considered
by the School Board,
BE IT RESOLVED by the School Board of Anoka-Hennepin Independent
School District No. 11 as follows:
That the following positions be discontinued effective at the close of

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that written notice be sent to said teachers regarding termination and nonrenewal of their contracts, as provided by
law. That the motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly
seconded by Board Member Fields and upon vote being taken thereon, the
following voted in favor Anderson, Fields, Harvey, Heidemann, and Wenzel
and the following voted against: none
whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted.
The second resolution terminated positions of 205.5 FTE probationary
teachers because it is not certain at this time if positions will be available
for them next year. When staffing needs for the next year have been firmed
up, it is likely that some of these teachers will be rehired.
RESOLUTION RELATING TO THE TERMINATION AND
NON-RENEWAL OF TEACHING CONTRACTS OF
PROBATIONARY TEACHERS
Member Heidemann introduced the resolution and moved its adoption
WHEREAS, the following persons are probationary teachers in AnokaHennepin Independent School District No. 11,
WHEREAS, the financial condition of the school district dictates that
the school board must reduce expenditures immediately, and
WHEREAS, there has been a reduction in student enrollment and,
WHEREAS, said recommendations have been received and considered
by the School Board,
BE IT RESOLVED by the School Board of Anoka-Hennepin Independent
School District No. 11 that pursuant to Minnesota Statute §122A.40,
Subdivision 5, the teaching contracts of the following probationary teachers in Anoka-Hennepin Independent School District No. 11 are hereby
terminated at the close of the current 2013-14 school year.
