ADMINISTRATION REPORTS
High School Principal Dan Lee encouraged the board to take a look at the Science Fair for 7th graders, which was also being held that evening. He noted that this is a big project with weeks of preparation and a presentation to adults and people they don’t know. He called it a “good adversity” experience.
He also reported on band and Varsity Singers competitions, the annual Music Feast show choir even and Veterans Breakfast, thanking all of the volunteers and students who assist with these programs.
Lee noted that 20+ students are being assisted with a new backpack food program for the upper grades that provides students with food for weekends. The new program is supported by Honda, an anonymous donor and the Hardin County United Way.
