Plumsted announces full school safety scores, livestreaming of meetings and a new district logo
Summary
Superintendent David Ytreboe announced that the district will begin live‑streaming board meetings, introduced a new district logo, and reported maximum School Safety/School Climate self‑assessment scores (78/78) for all three schools.
Superintendent David Ytreboe used the Oct. 16 meeting to announce several district communications and community items and to present the School Safety/School Climate Team self‑assessment results.
Ytreboe told the board the district will begin live‑streaming Board of Education meetings; links will be posted on the district website and ParentSquare. He introduced a new district logo — credited to graphic designer Jeff Apel and Carol Reed of the New Egypt Historical Society — and noted the logo reflects the district’s long history dating to the first public school in New Egypt in 1834.
On school safety, the School Safety/School Climate Team reported maximum self‑assessment scores (78 out of 78) for New Egypt High School, New Egypt Middle School and Dr. Gerald H. Woehr Elementary School. The minutes record those scores without additional qualitative commentary or follow‑up action steps.
Ytreboe also thanked community partners: the Women’s Club at Longview for a school supply drive and Plumsted PBA #390 for a donation of middle‑school soccer uniforms valued at $1,482.63. The superintendent provided a brief financial update, noting there was no reportable change on the district’s land sale.
Why it matters: livestreaming increases public access to board proceedings; the safety self‑assessment scores and community donations relate to school climate and student supports.
The board did not record extended discussion or questions about the safety scores in the minutes.
