Summary
Student reporters described successful Penny and Canned Food Drives; administrators listed multiple donations to athletics and scholarship funds and highlighted benchmarks, intervention programs and improved on-track percentages for key grades.
Student leaders delivered a short high-school report and administrators summarized recent school activities, donations and student-support initiatives.
"On behalf of Trojan Nation, happy School Board Appreciation Month," a student identified as Nicole said during the student report. The students described a successful Penny Drive and Canned Food Drive that produced two van-loads of donations to the Winston Food Bank and recognized sophomore Kim Lyman for business outreach that boosted participation.
Administrators reported several community donations to athletics and scholarship funds, naming multiple local businesses and donors by amount and program. Principals also described benchmarking activities, family engagement videos posted on the district Facebook page, a new math intervention program called Kickstart with notable student gains, and other plans such as a family dance and outdoor school planning.
Administrators praised teacher efforts and thanked the board for support. The meeting closed after the reports and a motion to adjourn.
Next steps: administrators and staff will continue benchmarking, program evaluation and community outreach; the board noted appreciation for volunteers and donors.
