Student council updates, new hunter‑safety summer class and AI planning highlighted
Summary
Student council members reported on academics, forensics and mental‑health day; the board heard a plan for a two‑week hunter safety summer class (20 students) and an update on AI guidance and apprenticeship/summer school programming.
Student activities, a proposed hunter‑safety summer class and district planning around artificial intelligence and summer interventions were among the informational items at the March 11 board meeting.
Student council juniors Chloe and Lane reported on K‑12 classroom highlights: sixth‑ and seventh‑grade mid‑module math assessments, Spanish 8 conversational work, high‑school woodworking projects being donated to a local sportsman’s banquet, continued ACT prep and a math contest with 24 participants. The forensics team advanced students to district competition on March 12, and the middle and high school student councils are coordinating a mental‑health day for April 1.
Administration said Mr. Martin has been trained to deliver a hunter‑safety summer course and 20 students expressed interest. The program will run as two one‑week sessions with DNR curriculum and a trailer used for non‑firing demonstrations; the district emphasized no firearms would be allowed on school property. Administrators said the class is additive to existing community offerings and should increase access for students who otherwise cannot attend off‑site courses.
On technology and instruction, staff reported attendance at CISA sessions and work on an administrative pathway for AI governance, including staff professional development and privacy/safety safeguards. The district is also continuing enrollment and staffing reviews, youth apprenticeship and work‑study tracking, and summer reading interventions under Act 20. Administrators said more details on summer offerings and reading interventions will be provided after spring assessments.
No board action was required on these informational items; staff said they would return with program details and scheduling as needed.
