USD 415 Board Discusses Elementary School Bus Options
11/17/2016

(KNZA)--The Hiawatha Board of Education this week discussed bus loading and unloading options at the Elementary School to address safety concerns.

Following discussion, the Board agreed to pilot a new plan.

Under the plan, busses will pull up to the parking area south of the kindergarten wing on Miami Street to drop off kids in the morning.

If the plan works, it may be possible to integrate it into the future rehabilitation of Miami Street.

In other business, the Board approved the purchase of new tables for the high school cafeteria.

While the actual cost wasn’t available, the Board agreed to set a maximum expenditure of $16,500 for the tables.

And the Board also approved providing lunches at cost to employees that help in the cafeteria.    

While the lunches were provided for free in the past, Superintendent Penny Hargrove said that the district is now being charged for the meals and will not have the funds to cover them.
