Summary
Superintendent Dr. Kaye announced a sixth-grade Minecraft team won its region and earned an invitation to the state competition; the district will present a separate field-trip authorization because the request arrived after the agenda was posted.
Superintendent Dr. Kaye reported that the district’s sixth-grade Minecraft build team won its regional competition and has been invited to compete at the state level.
Dr. Kaye named the three sixth-grade students — Vincent Richardson, Truman Hill and Jace London — and credited the gifted coordinators (Missus Peterson and Missus Federer) for supporting the teams. He said the field-trip request to attend the state competition arrived after the agenda deadline, so the authorization paperwork will be presented to the board separately for approval so the students can attend.
The board congratulated the students and staff. The superintendent said he would send board members a link to view the students’ project work.
What’s next: administration will submit the formal field-trip request and related paperwork for board consideration and approval prior to travel.
