A reminder for patrons of the Griswold Community School District: A Special School Board meeting is set to take place this evening at 7 in the High School Auditorium,with regard to the District’s facilities.

Griswold Superintendent David Henrichs said late last month, that “For the past several months the facilities committee has been carefully evaluating the costs to maintain multiple school buildings while considering the long-term operational impacts. During [tonight’s] Special Board meeting, which is focused on school facilities, the committee and the architect representing the school will share their findings and make a final recommendation to the Board of Education regarding the next steps.”

He says “With the School Board’s consent, the community intends to further define the plans, the cost and educational benefits for our students.” The Facilities Committee will meet prior to this evening’s meeting, beginning at 5-p.m. Henrichs says the committee feels like they are ready to make a recommendation to the School Board, and the Board will be asked whether they wish to approve that recommendation.
