have taken advantage of the “Ed Camp” days.
Larry Meyer, High School Principal, reported that summer sports were successful. Football and
volleyball practices will begin after the state mandated “Family Week”. Student schedules are done,
the new scoreboards are up in the gym, and beginning year schedules for the staff will be distributed
soon. August 23 is the first day of school and will be here soon.
Tim Dugger, Superintendent and Elementary Principal, reported that the elementary addition is almost
complete. Furniture is set to arrive soon, but the new staff bathroom has yet to be done. The courtyard
project will be completed by Outdoor Creations. A donation of $5,000.00 was received for the purchase
