The Worth County R-III Board of Education held its February board meeting on Thursday, February 18, 2021 for the purpose of conducting the business of the school district. President Patricia Warner called the meeting to order at 7:30 pm.
Kelly Ross, 7-9 science teacher, talked with the board about how her classes have adapted to the current learning conditions. “While we have had to limit some of the things that we ‘normally’ do, like field trips, students have adapted well and for the most part are meeting learning expectations,” said Ross.
The principals presented the district’s plan for educating students in grades 6-12 on the state required sexual assault training, which includes giving students information on resources available and how to report when sexual assault occurs.
The board approved a contract with Concrete Revival for the summer flooring project. The project will include the abatement of asbestos tiles in the high school, application of a moisture vapor barrier, application of epoxy flake flooring in the locker rooms, the hallways, and some classrooms. In addition, Eckard’s in Stanberry will complete carpeting tiles in 8 classrooms and install cove basing. The project will take 8 weeks and begin as soon as school dismisses for the summer.
In other business the board accepted the resignation of Will Coleman, Elementary PE and MO Options Instructor. The board extended contracts for Jon Adwell, HS principal, and Chuck Borey, EL principal for the 2021-2022 school year. All votes were unanimous.
Board meeting adjourned at 9:04 pm.
