(KMZA)--Nemaha Central students will be making up some school time which was lost due to the solar eclipse and inclement weather earlier in the year.
The USD 115 Board of Education this week approved having students attend a full day on April 2nd and from 8:00 until 12:30 on Monday, April 16th. Lunch will be served on April 16th.
Board members also approved the calendar for next school year. Students will begin classes on Thursday, August 16th. Spring break will be March 11-15, 2019, which is the same as regent universities.
Superintendent Darrel Kohlman presented an updated floor plan for the proposed four-classroom addition that would connect the elementary/middle school and high school. The latest estimated cost is $1.3 million.
Kohlman also presented cost estimates for updating the main restrooms at the high school, which came in at $118,000 and the high school locker rooms, which came in at $180,000.
Plans were also presented for the Vo-Ag greenhouse, which is estimated to cost $270,000 and a separate classroom, which is estimated at $200,000.
The projects will be discussed further at the next regular meeting.
Resignations were accepted from two Nemaha Central High School teachers effective at the end of the current school year. They include English/social studies teacher Betty Hecht and science teacher Chris Vitt.
