Community rallies for successful backpack giveaway and school safety upgrades

A recent government meeting highlighted significant community engagement and ongoing safety upgrades within the school district. The meeting began with a celebration of a successful backpack giveaway event in Bransville, organized by Miss Carolyn Flagg, which saw an impressive turnout and collaboration from central office staff.

The district is also launching a community tour aimed at increasing transparency about its academic performance, growth, and capital improvements. The tour commenced with a presentation to the Chamber of Commerce, with plans to engage various local organizations over the next six weeks.

In addition to community outreach, the district is prioritizing safety upgrades across schools. The bidding process for these improvements has begun, with work expected to start soon and continue throughout the school year. The upgrades will be implemented in phases to minimize disruption to students, particularly during door replacements.

The district is working closely with the fire marshal to finalize the upgrade phases, with an emphasis on ensuring student safety. The meeting underscored the district's commitment to addressing safety concerns while maintaining open communication with the community.
