As this is an over-night event, notification of the Board is a courtesy to make them aware of the conference. The board also heard the Administrators’ Reports at the meeting. Elementary Principal Lance Batchelor reported on Child Development Days held on March 2. Twenty students were screened on that date with 7 others who will register on another day. The elementary held its “Read In” on March 4 in celebration of Dr. Seuss’ birthday and for Read Across America Week.
Elementary students are in the process of selecting summer school courses they would like to take. Once that is completed scheduling will begin.
