A Letter from the Editor:
Going On-line

Thanks to all of you who took the time to respond to our question about going on-line with the Staff Bulletin, part of the district's overall effort to reduce costs while providing you with up-to-date information about district initiatives and ongoing recognition of our people and programs. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive about taking the Bulletin on-line, as both a cost-saving measure as well as a more timely way to provide you information.

Students from across the district were recognized by the Board of Education and Superintendent at the January 28 Board Recognition of Student Achievement. After each student had a chance to introduce him/herself, the afternoon ceremony ended with a thundering round of applause for the high achieving students and the many dedicated teachers, staff, and parents who support them.
