School briefs

It looks like the school district will have a large kindergarten class next fall. Center School Principal Lisa Lakin reported to the school board that 45 kindergarten students had already been signed and usually at this time only about 20 are signed up.

The school board approved the district’s new technology plan and was told that the district has 400 computers tied to the internet.

School attendance is holding steady with the April report showing there are 818.83 fulltime students in the district.

The district budgeted for 610 students and attendance has been over that number every month this year except last September when attendance figures showed 603.71 full time students.

A number of Center School students have signed up to march in the Colorama Parade this Saturday. In recognition of the Rachel’s Challenge program, students have been writing acts of kindness on paper and making a paper chain which they will carry in the parade. Center school students will be joined by FOR clubs in both the middle school and Lake Roosevelt.
