(Anita, Iowa) – The CAM School District’s Board of Education held a Workshop Tuesday evening in Anita, with regard to District Facilities. Superintendent Paul Croghan told KJAN News the Board received, and then discussed, a recommendation from the Facility Committee.

The Board weighed the options of maintaining two buildings and two different campuses, and the costs versus one campus and one building over-time.

Following the Committee’s presentation, Croghan said the CAM School Board asked questions and gave the Committee time to speak freely about anything they thought the Board might consider. During the Board’s next, regular meeting on July 15th, the Board and Committee representatives will mull over the financial projection numbers. A workshop will precede the regular meeting on the 15th.

Paul Croghan said the Committee’s recommendation to move forward with a one-building district, was based on a number of factors.

He says the process of finding answers to questions about the District’s needs was not taken lightly.

He said he appreciates everyone who has worked to compile the necessary information, and 560 District patrons who responded to an online survey that was unique to the CAM District, and those who want to be informed and involved in the decision making process.
