Also on tonight's agenda is a resolution to withdraw from the Horizon private health plan that the district has been using and switch back to the state-run program. The resolution states that the Horizon plan is due for a 29% cost increase, while the state plan is set to increase by just 15%, a rate already included in the district budget.

The meeting is set for 7:30 p.m. in the Columbia High School auditorium.
