Principal reports stable enrollment, senior planning and career-readiness activities
Summary
The principal (Mr. Browning) reported current enrollment figures, described senior meetings on postsecondary options, and outlined upcoming career-readiness activities including college fairs and scholarship opportunities.
At the principal report, Mr. Browning (S8) updated the board on enrollment and school activities. He said junior-class sections were larger than expected and noted net enrollment was down slightly from the previous year largely due to graduation and some families moving away; the principal described adjustments being made to course assignments and foreign-exchange placements.
S8 outlined senior-focused activities: a recent senior meeting to review postsecondary options, an upcoming Jostens visit for cap-and-gown ordering, and planned participation in a regional career fair that will expose students to college and technical programs. He also noted a local donor/scholarship pool (~$101,000) available to the senior class and upcoming farm and career tours.
In athletics, the AD (S5) reported participation and events, noted 25 student drug tests were administered with results pending, and confirmed the softball program’s petition to remain in Class B was approved. The principal and AD stressed attention to air-quality decisions for outside practices and other health/safety considerations.
The board acknowledged the reports and asked follow-up questions about drug-testing specifics and classification outcomes; no formal action was taken.
