Mrs. Harrelson presented the Superintendent's Report; Act of God days have changed again.
The state superintendent says they will be approved for this year but probably not moving forward. We have used three emergency days to be made up at the end of the year. The State is saying that funds have been used to improve technology across the state therefore schools should be using e-learning days. ESSER III monies will be used to replace the roof and 20% to be used towards Mrs. Fleener's salary. The State has also set aside targeted funds to be used towards Mrs. Fleener's salary, after school tutoring, and possibly a summer ukulele club. WOVSED has hired Monica Girten as director. She will replace David Kaytor when he retires in June.
