Assistant Principal Weekley reported on the following:
• IAR Information: Testing window dates of March 22 – April 13th were discussed. The actual testing schedule is still in the works. Thanks to all the Chromebooks it is so much easier now and we just need 2 teachers available to monitor each testing session. Superintendent Becker reported on the following:
• Covid Update: We currently have 0 on quarantine and 0 positive cases. We have had less than 10% wearing masks now that it is optional with that number falling each day.
• Tentative Calendar for 2022-23: Discussed the highlights of the tentative calendar which typically is approved at the March meeting. It is pretty much the same as this year’s. We are required to take off Election Day and the last day of school would be May 19th.
• Bulldog Dash – the 18h Annual Bulldog Dash will once again be a virtual event this year. The planning has begun, and the committee hopes to have another successful year. Kohrmann Insurance Solutions will serve as our Diamond Sponsor.
