School News School board plans full agenda

The Dolores School Board of Education is expected to meet Thursday, April 10 at 6 p.m.

The first item on the agenda is an executive session, which is expected to last 15 minutes.

Following the executive session, there will be a Montezuma School to Farm presentation and a presentation on the Literacy Design Collaborative.

Middle School teachers Clay Tallmadge and Miriam Baines are also expected to present a student showcase. Dave Hopcia will give a graduation report and report on the senior trip. Mark Baxter will give a technology report and there will be a Construction Project.

Teen Maze looking for volunteers

Teen Maze is looking for volunteers to help staff rooms and be present at the maze. The dates are April 17 and 18. Students will be out of school the whole day, so you must get it approved and return a parents permission slip.

Catching up with the elementary

Fourth- and fifth-grade students are heading to the woods on Friday to help plant trees for the San Juan Mountain Association. This is a great learning project with lasting benefits.

The third grade is learning all about their community and will be "out and about" in the town of Dolores during the month of April.

The School to Farm program is alive and growing. Classes have signed up for day of fun and learning in the garden.

We are continuing to plan for the move of the sixth grade to the elementary school. The next parent meeting is April 17 at 5 p.m. We will begin to answer some of the questions and concerns raised by parents at the last meeting. This move is slated to occur during the 2015-2016 school year. Come and learn more!
