Principals report safety drills, athletics and student fundraisers at Pawnee board meeting
Summary
Elementary and MS/HS principals reported that spring emergency and fire drills have started, a districtwide tornado drill is planned for March, a Candy Gram fundraiser will run Jan.26–Feb.6 at $5 each (elementary only), and multiple athletic tournaments and homecoming dates were announced.
At the Jan. 13 Pawnee Board of Education meeting, Elementary Principal Kellie Ehler reported that required emergency drills for the spring semester are underway and that a districtwide tornado drill is planned for March. Ehler said Candy Gram order forms will be sent Jan. 26 and will be due Feb. 6; Candy Grams cost $5 and are for elementary students only.
MS/HS Principal Tammy Hixon told the board classes resumed Jan. 5 and that the school completed a fire drill Jan. 7. Hixon reviewed recent athletic results — the girls’ basketball team finished as runners-up at the Morrison Tournament — and outlined upcoming games and tournaments, including the Yale Tournament Jan. 22–24, wrestling district duals on Jan. 22, and homecoming on Jan. 30. Hixon also noted early releases and a Jan. 19 middle school wrestling festival.
These operational updates accompanied routine consent items and calendar approval; the minutes provide event dates and fundraiser details but do not include extended narratives or quotes beyond the principals’ reported items.
