Promises made...

A letter was sent home with some kids today which reads as such:

May 5, 2005

Dear Parents:

As you know the school levy had passed and I want to congratulate and thank everyone who has been so supportive of the schools. Without your efforts the levy would not have passed.

Since the levy has passed the district is adding the regular bus route that was cut as of January 3, 2005, along with the mid-day preschool route effective as of Monday, May 9, 2005. Please refer to the reverse side of this letter for route information. If you have any questions please contact Jim Sigman at the Bus Garage at (330) 326-2331.

Also, as a result of the levy passing, next year we will not institute "pay to participate", field trips will be reinstated, the preschool classes will be preserved, and teaching position reductions will be kept to a minimum.

Again, thank you for your support and patience.

Sincerely,

(signed)

Ronald L. Niemiec
Superintendent

Its good to hear this early word that the Board of Education intends to keep the promises that they had made concerning the levy's passage. I've also heard through the grapevine that Industrial Arts (Shop Class) will return to the High School next year.

Good to hear!
