GREEN RIVER — The Sweetwater County School District No. 2 Board of Trustees will meet Tuesday night to swear in board members and consider buying three replacement school buses.
Kenny Shoning Jr., a new member, will be sworn in alongside incumbent trustees Tom Wilson and Daniel Flom. Shoning will take the seat held by board chair Ashley Castillon, who did not run for reelection.
Trustees will consider approving the purchase of three buses from the Wyoming Department of Education’s annual bus bid. According to board documents, all three buses meet the WDE’s replacement criteria and would be bought through Elder Equipment of Casper. Base vehicle prices are $173,600 for a Type C bus replacing Bus 149, used for school routes; $235,000 for a Type D bus replacing Bus 152, used for school activities; and $130,595 for a Type D bus replacing Bus 241, used for rural school routes.
The board will also consider going out for a replacement of the Lincoln Middle School hot water system. It will also consider pursuing a request for proposals for E-Rate qualified equipment for a district-wide network switch refresh.
The public meeting begins at 6 p.m. at the district office in Green River. The meeting will also be streamed live on the district’s YouTube page. The full agenda can be found here.
