Thanks on behalf of the staff for a great conference dinner. We held the Outdoor Education informational meeting. We’ve had 1 snow day this year. MSA testing will occur over 4 days. They are allowing us to provide a snack and water. We have a potential donor for the water. We are looking for snacks (4 days of snacks for approx. 730 students). Science testing for MSA is only for 8^th graders and will be administered via computer. We have requested to use the high school labs as well as ours. We will have walking permission slips. Mt. View will be hosting summer school this year for below level reading and math. We are down one custodian. We have hired the cafeteria manager. Western Horizon Council has asked for some of our students to be involved on committee. We have received staffing schedule for next year. They are predicting our enrollment to be down by 40 students. We have 2 teachers going out on leave: Nicole Parsons and Heather Shields. As of Friday we had used up our paper allotment for the year.
