The Southwick-Tolland Regional School District will fill a fourth nursing position - even if there is no state funding for it.
The School Committee voted unanimously this week to post the job.
"We'll continue to try to see if we can get some grant funds, and then move on to filling that position if we can't," said John D. Barry, the district's new superintendent.
School officials are facing the loss of $53,000 in grant money from the state Department of Public Health, which could result in the loss of a school nurse.
The district was told recently that it would not be included in the state's $15 million program in the next school year.
Some of the district's options include eliminating the position or funding it with money from its excess and deficiency fund.
"There are two (grant) categories: a full grant which pays for your nursing leader, and then there is another category where you get some monitoring money," said Barry. "That might happen, or might not."
He said the district will learn whether it will receive grant money "in a couple of weeks, because they are finalizing the state budget now."
Tuesday was the first official working day for Barry, who succeeded Thomas E. Witham.
The latter retired on June 30 after 41 years in the field.
"It was a very informative day," Barry said. "I got a chance to talk to a lot of people I needed to see. I think it was a good thing to have the School Committee meeting on the first day here, because it really forced some progress on some important issues.
"It was a good day, and I am looking forward to tomorrow." source
