Summary

Superintendent Drew Billeter reported a shift from paper to electronic district newsletters, parking-lot improvements and a gym door repair; principals reported the start of MAPS and DIBBLES testing and a successful pep rally.

Superintendent Drew Billeter told the board Sept. 9 that the district has transitioned from paper copies of its newsletter to an electronic format to improve efficiency and reduce paper waste, while continuing to offer paper copies for those who prefer them. Billeter also reported that the south gym door was repaired to improve security and accessibility, and that additional rock from Paulson's was placed in parking lots to improve conditions and safety.

Billeter said the junior class hosted a successful fundraiser serving hot dogs at a Husker football game to support their activities. In separate reports, Principal Matt Springer informed the board about the 12-passenger van certification issue (reported elsewhere in the minutes) and Principal Tara Fries reported the successful startup of MAPS and DIBBLES testing and a schoolwide pep rally that included all students.

These items were presented as informational reports; the transcript records no formal motions related to newsletter format, parking improvements, testing startup or the pep rally.
