During a recent government meeting, significant discussions highlighted the importance of student resources and infrastructure improvements within local schools.

One key topic was the emphasis on recess as a vital component of student well-being. Officials underscored the necessity of providing safe environments for students to engage in recreational activities, ensuring that resources are allocated effectively to support this initiative.

Additionally, Principal Teller and his team at WinCo were commended for securing a grant aimed at creating a sensory hallway, which is designed to enhance emotional regulation and support students' sensory needs. This project is expected to improve focus, attention, and motor skills among students, showcasing a holistic approach to education that prioritizes mental health and developmental support.

The meeting also acknowledged Mr. Holman for his successful application for a $1 million grant from the Department of Community and Economic Development. This funding will be directed towards a roofing project at the local high school, marking a significant investment in the school’s infrastructure.

These discussions reflect a commitment to enhancing educational environments and addressing the diverse needs of students, ensuring that they have the necessary support to thrive academically and emotionally.
