Elementary football was discussed--original motion in April 2015 was to continue with the program if a coach could be found and there were proper numbers. This year Ashley had 5 kids and future numbers are ex- pected to be low as well. Wishek kids are invited to participate (22 this year) but all cost is taken care of by the Ashley school, since the Wishek school does not want to be involved in the program. The original equipment was purchased through fundrais- ing. All practices and games are in Ashley. General consensus is to keep running the program as it is. Possibility of some practices in Wishek if they are willing to have some elementary VB prac- tices in Ashley.
Mr. Schmidt stated one football uniform hasn’t been turned in and the family has not reimbursed the cost of the items. He was directed to see what ac- tion NDSBA recommends.
Principal’s report: 1) Pod- cast mentioned last meeting has been completed--links were pro- vided in the newsletter; 2) Ad- vancEd update--district report card has been completed as well as goals based on survey data; 3) Online student field trips have been beneficial;
4) Drama performance 11/13 at 7:30; 5) Additional Ad- vancEd activities being discussed-- family fun night in February & an open house in the fall before school starts.
*Matt Gauss left the meet- ing at 8:04pm.
