Ag, Art, MS Math, Science and guidance counselor need to be filled, as well as secondary principal.
Construction update - area has been measured for beams and it looks like they will start the first part of April as long as the weather cooperates. There doesn't seem to be any supply chain issues. Mr. Kobza gave a summary of the legislative update. The Pillen plan will more than likely go into effect next year. LB545 prohibits certain groups from using facilities. An important thing to do as a board member is to remind legislators that you were elected as well to make decisions for our kids and community. |
