Mr. Johnson also shared that the Math Curriculum K-12 Alignment is due and samples are coming in and being reviewed. Junior High volleyball won the WEAA Conference.

Mrs. Harrelson:

Library Grant- $850 and 5% of grant was given to Miranda Morris for compensation for working on the Grant. Legal Update- Covid-paid leave will probably pass. Maria has been doing great keeping track of employees affected. ISBE collection of sexual demographics have been posponed for SY23. ISBE Compliance Visit went well. New metal went up on the girls softball dugouts. Mr. Reid did a great job getting that done. The FFA Banquet has been set for April 30th @ 5:30pm.

Building & Grounds Update: Electricity was being installed for bleachers and hvac this week. On March 24 the old bleachers will be pulled out and the new bleachers will be installed during Spring Break. Parking lot asphalt estimate was over $50,000 so bids will have to go out for that. Spring Break will be March 28th-April 1st. The High School Spelling Bee will be held April 14th. Outcast Airbrush and Graphics of Grayville was notified and we are waiting for a response to paint the Bison outside the High School Building.

Transportation/Reid: follow up from the February Board Meeting about the district vehicles on hand. Mr Reid presented to the board that the Suburban has roughly 150,000 miles on it. It's wonderful to have a 3rd vehicle available. The white pickup has fleet insurance and barely gets 80 miles per year. The custodial staff typically use their own personal trucks to run errands because the truck doesn’t seem safe. Mr Reid asked Rick Conner his opinion on what the suburban and truck would get at auction. $5,000-5500 for the suburban and the truck around $2200. Mr. Reid suggested getting an All-Terrain Vehicle for grounds keeping and ushering people to the softball field.
