District celebrates theatre awards and says schools are ready for reopening
Summary
Superintendent Walton and board members recognized student theater achievements across several awards programs and said schools will welcome staff Sept. 2 and students Sept. 4; administrators said the district is fully staffed with certified teachers.
At the start of the meeting the superintendent (identified in the transcript as Missus Walton) highlighted student and staff achievements from the previous school year and previewed the start of the new school year.
Walton named awards from three events — Rising Stars Paper Mill, the Count Basie Awards, and the Foxy Awards — and called up Principal Kazuba and Mrs. Wertwein to join the recognitions. She read a list of students honored for performance and technical achievements and congratulated staff and students for what she called "an outstanding school year." She also said the district will welcome faculty back on Sept. 2 and students on Sept. 4, and that schedules and bus passes have been distributed to families.
Walton said the district has a "fully staffed certified staff" for the coming year and thanked administrators and maintenance staff for summer preparations.
Board members later echoed praise for the drama program; Missus Gilman said she had the pleasure of seeing Little Shop of Horrors and noted the scenery and performance were "incredible." The board encouraged the public to congratulate students and staff.
Next steps: Photos were taken of the awardees; administrators said families who need assistance should contact their schools' main office.
