It contains information about how much money was paid to elected officials, the salaries of all employees making more than $75,000, and the amounts paid to all suppliers who were paid more than $25,000.The statement is a public document and is available on the school district's website (it is part of the Nov. 27 meeting agenda package).In other school district news:Superintendent Angus Wilson told trustees that the district's application to install solar panels at Sk'aadgaa Naay elementary has been approved. The $50,000 project, which should reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help the school during power outages, should be complete by March 31.At G.M. Dawson Secondary, a new propane boiler is being installed due to an "emergency situation", Mr. Wilson said. The school's diesel boilers have been causing a lot of maintenance headaches, and although propane is more expensive than diesel, the new boiler will need less maintenance and will result in a lower carbon footprint, he said.
