In a recent government meeting, Mister Swanson expressed gratitude towards Miss Heywood and the Cary High community for their successful community cleanup day, which took place on Saturday. The event saw participation from local landscaping businesses that volunteered their time and equipment, resulting in significant beautification efforts, including tree removal and pruning. Over 60 volunteers contributed to the initiative, demonstrating strong community engagement.

Swanson emphasized the importance of words and character, particularly in the context of the upcoming election cycle. He urged board members to recognize their influence and the responsibility they hold in ensuring that all students feel seen, safe, and heard. He encouraged everyone to engage in the electoral process by registering and participating in local elections.

Following these remarks, the board moved to amend the meeting agenda to include immediate votes on requests for leave and administrative appointments. The motion was approved unanimously, and the amended agenda was adopted without opposition. The meeting concluded with a vote on HR recommendations from a prior closed session, which also passed smoothly.
