Support for levies at OHHS, Sylvania; Shuer Roof Project to Proceed

At the board meeting last night, there were several interesting developments: along with the normal business of the board, we reaffirmed the decision to move forward by contracting with Rossi & Associates as recommended by the Building and Grounds Committee. Rossi & Associates will serve as the architects and overseers in the roofing project at the Shuer Center. They were chosen after the B & G committee met with several other highly reputable companies. The bids for the roof will go out in January or February, and construction will begin in the spring. The total cost of the project will be around half a million dollars.
The board also voted to support the levies at Ottawa Hills and Sylvania, two of the schools which we serve. A number of grants were accepted as well. Next month, the meeting will be held on a Thursday instead of Tuesday, as the Ohio School Boards Association Conference takes place over the time of the normally scheduled meeting. I will blog on the OSBA Conference.
Everything else is progressing as expected - nothing out of the ordinary to report.
