This was a special meeting called to address several items. It was a short but very informative meeting. Superintendent Whelton gave updates on the Technology Phase III improvements in the school system.  The board voted to approve up to $100,000.00 from the sinking fund to cover this work. There are some great improvements coming to our schools that will benefit and hopefully excite the students.
The renovations like roof repair etc... are ongoing.  The schools will be partnering with the Great Lakes Bay Health Center and they will be doing some remodeling in the high school. That is where their office will be located.  Their services will be available to all students at all the school locations.
The sad news, at least sad to me.  They will be demolishing Schrah and Schluckbier Schools. 😢 I loved those schools and still have fond memories of the schools & some truly great teachers there.
They went into closed session for further discussion of the Superintendent's evaluation.  New data came in and they reevaluated based on the new data.
During the Superintendent comments at the end he gives some well deserved shout outs to staff and students that are working around the schools during the summer.  Also talks about the new eSports  and creative arts programs they have started, and more updates.
