JANESVILLE--The Janesville School Board has a busy agenda that could make for a long night when it meets Tuesday.

The board canceled its meeting Feb. 27 because of a snowstorm and decided to roll that agenda into Tuesday’s meeting.

The meeting is scheduled to begin with an hour-long discussion of early-retirement benefits. The board seems determined to change the benefit, which now provides health care insurance after retirement to employees who qualify.

Board members appear interested in plans that do not include health insurance, which has skyrocketed in cost. Any votes on the proposals would come at future meetings.

Representatives of employee groups have been invited to hear the presentation and discussion.
