Superintendent: virtual program growing; facilities master plan due by July 1

Superintendent Dr. Newton updated the board on virtual-program finances and facilities planning. She said the district's virtual-program revenue increased to about $479,000 this school year with expenses near $81,000, a significant rise from an earlier year when revenue was around $61,000 and expenses $20,000. Administration intends to market the virtual program during the open enrollment window and to recruit students to expand capacity.
