The CAM School Board met Monday evening in Anita, and heard an update on the Elementary Building Addition. Business Manager/School Board Secretary Linda Edwards told KJAN News crews are busy putting on the finishing touches for the building’s interior.

She said also, the CAM School Board accepted resignations from: Dan Riker, Co-Junior High Wrestling Coach; Luke Symonds, Junior High Girls Track Coach; Patricia McCurdy resigned from her position as Head Custodian at the Massena building. Contract were awarded: to Luke Symonds as Head High School Girls Varsity Track Coach; Barry Bower and Matthew Williamson, who will share a Strength and Conditioning Coach position; Courtney Clark was awarded a contract as North Elementary Special Education Teacher.

Edwards said the Board voted to keep fees the same for the 2017-18 school year, but there is a change in lunch and milk prices. She said they are required by the school lunch formula, to raise the prices of lunches by 10-cents, but they will reduce the cost of extra milk by 5-cents. Staff lunches prices were reduced to $3.55, because the must be higher than $3.54.

Linda said also, there was a lot of discussion about the facilities projects that are underway. That includes the installation of new security cameras inside and outside the CAM High School. The Board also voted to progress with the Greenhouse building that will be purchased and erected at Massena, even though the cost of concrete was higher due to the elevation land. She says “It’ll be a nice project when they get it done.”
