Students at the MS/HS have quickly learned new lunchtime routines with the return of entering their ID number into a computer and how they pick up their food.

Thank you to student clubs who helped feed the community over Thanksgiving weekend. Todos United and Chelan Project clubs helped at the Apple Cup on Thanksgiving Day while Mr. Gonzalez and FCCLA students cooked up meals for 10 families.

• WSSDA Conference Discussion

Brad and the Board members attended the annual WSSDA conference Nov. 16-19 in Spokane.

Brad had the Board talk about what they experienced at the WSSDA Conference among themselves, then shared some of the ideas with the meeting audience. Some of the take-aways were:

• All jobs and decisions in a public school district are BECAUSE of kids.
• Valuable information was gained at every breakout session attended. The Board was grateful to attend.
• Every year there is more valuable ideas, but there is a feeling that a pre-conference for small school focus would be a good idea.
• The Board would like to add student representatives to the school board meetings.

Brad thanked the Board for their time in attending the conference.
