Scott Bogner welcomed all to a new school year. He informed the board that the auditor will
be on-site next week for his yearly audit.
The legislature decided we will get $210 per student added to our
state aide. Unfortunately, the
increase doesn’t cover the increase in operational costs for the upcoming
year. Mr. Bogner discussed the results
of Adequate Yearly Progress for the district. |
