Superintendent Adam Bowen reviewed the start of the third trimester, spring sports kickoff, a Cannabis Education Night with Berrien County Health Department on March 16, NBARA meeting notice, and softball field upgrades supported by a DNR Recreational Passport State grant.

Superintendent Adam Bowen reviewed operational items for the district: "We officially began our third and final trimester of the school year today," he said, and noted spring sports had begun despite March weather. Bowen announced a Cannabis Education Night in partnership with the Berrien County Health Department scheduled for Monday, March 16, at 6:00 PM, aimed at parents and community members to explain impacts of cannabis on the developing teenage brain.

Bowen also provided a New Buffalo Area Recreational Authority (NBARA) meeting notice for the coming week and reported that work has begun on city-owned Softball Field 4 upgrades, funded by a DNR Recreational Passport State grant. He framed these items as operational updates rather than policy measures requiring board action.
