Summary

Staff representatives reported a string of classroom and extracurricular highlights across district elementary schools, middle school and high school — from Black History Month lessons and a visiting therapy dog to a new CCMS home and careers classroom and an AI committee at the high school.

During public‑facing school updates the board heard short reports from elementary and middle‑school staff describing recent student activities and programs.

Willow Avenue reported visits from a therapy dog and a fourth‑grade PTO winter festival; students participated in Black History Month lessons and a ‘‘fight for a cause’’ unit. Lee Road staff described a new book vending machine funded by their PTO, field trips to Black Rock Forest and Read Across America planning. Cornwall Elementary School and Cornwall Central Middle School highlighted PTO events, a food and hygiene drive and the opening of a new home and careers classroom for seventh graders where students will learn budgeting, cooking and design.

The high school update noted formation of an AI committee, parking assignments for juniors, the band expo, drama rehearsals and plans to hold graduation at the new Dragon Stadium (weather permitting) in 2026.

These updates were presented as brief community and student‑achievement items rather than agenda motions; no formal board action was recorded on these items.
