Kingfisher students might get an extra day of Christmas break this year.

The board of education is scheduled to have its December regular meeting at 7 p.m. Monday.

Among the items on the agenda is to amend the 2021-22 calendar that would change Wednesday, Dec. 22, from an instructional day to a professional development day.

Currently, the holiday break is set to begin Thursday, Dec. 23.

A change would likely mean rearranging the semester test schedule for high school students.

The current calendar calls for those tests to be held Tuesday and Wednesday, Dec. 21-22.

Seven positions are set to be potentially filled during the meeting.

Those include a districtwide dyslexia specialist, second grade teacher, high school FACS teacher, KMS custodian, Gilmour paraprofessional, Heritage paraprofessional and a parttime bus mechanic.

Board members will hear from a representative of Britton, Kuykendall & Miller CPAs regarding the district’s audit and subsequently vote to approve it.

Other items on the agenda include:

• Contracts with Joe D. Hall Construction and LWPB Architecture for 2022-23 phased construction and renovation projects;

•Possible membership with the Kingfisher Chamber of Commerce;

• A clinical/internship affiliation agreement with Jacksonville University for hosting a speech pathologist candidate for 2021-22 school year;

• Creation of a junior high library sub-account;

• Action on board policy regarding student transfers.
