Construction is continuing to move forward. We're trying to post some updates. If you want to go to our website and look at uh the construction as it progresses along, I would like to say that we have teachers now who are um enjoying some brand new classrooms over at Wright. Some of the first classrooms we put together, we have teachers now moved in and students are using those classrooms. And I have heard lots of good feedback on um what a nice uh environment it is to learn in um how wonderful it is to have multiple plugs uh of electricity throughout the room.
004Uh so this is we are already beginning to use the um the updated areas and they're proving to be very good for our teachers and for our kids. We have quite a uh quite a list of student accomplishments. So, this might be a little bit like when we do the UIL. I've got a list of kids who have done some really good things. And if you guys will bear with me, I would like to recognize these kids. So, so I'm going to start through our accomplishments and we will um we will give them some uh some recognition.

Um interestingly enough, one of a nephew of Mrs. Hail, who is our assistant superintendent for curriculum instruction, got the reserve champion at both of those shows. Jake and Jet uh got the exact same order at both of those shows. So, it was quite a quite a um good representation for Pitton and for the Panhandle in general at our two shows.

Carly Cromings, uh, needed to, um, let you guys know about that. You knew about that from last meeting. And Cindy Boxwell is also, uh, one of the resignations we received earlier in the month. And with that, everyone, Mr. President, I'll turn it back over to you. Okay, let's start up at Ludy. Nope. We have a report in front of us. Mr. Stormer wants to report on Ludy Martin. Your timing is perfect. Pton High School. Everything's great at the high school. Any questions? Okay. Thanks, Tori. While while Tori's Well, I'm going to take Well, Tori is still in here. So, so just just to Well, Tori is still
014in here. That's okay. Tori doesn't necessarily have to come back in here, but just to update you guys, you know, when it came to construction of what's happening at the high school, um we met with the art board this morning and they've been concerned about the art that's hanging in Pitton High School and we are going we've part of the plan has been that we're going to create display areas throughout the high school. And so, um they didn't know all this. So, we called a meeting so that we could communicate with them. they were very comfortable with the way that we're um planning to to uh display the art and also store the art and how we're going to take care of that throughout the construction. So, just wanted to let you guys know that
015we're we're um have them involved in the in the process and they're comfortable with way that's that that's moving. So, thank you Tori. Okay, now we'll go to the junior high Miss Wheeler. Okay. Hi. Um we had a great month. We're had student council tryyous, cheerleading tryyouts, spring benchmark data dives. So, we're we've re-evaluated all of our win groups, and now we have the kiddos um with specific teachers to work on specific skills that we know that that they need some intensive instruction on to get them brushed up. And uh then everyone else in their tier one instruction are working on star review so we can be ready here in a couple of weeks to take our first test. So that's where we are. Questions for me. Thank you very much. All right. Thank you.
016Let's go to right Mr. Kates. It's all good at winning. Even better than Kinder. Are you both in the same vehicle? No. We're still there for now. Does anybody have any questions for me? You didn't You didn't leave. You didn't swap them. Jody was right. Correct. You went to Well, he said right, but he I know what he meant. She just looked like she was really having a hard time adjusting to it. No, it's just everything's great at Right. Um, I did want to highlight we had our first uh principal of the day last week. Anna Zavala had a 150 AR points and she was our first principal of the day and that was always an exciting time. So, um, third grade's in their rooms. They're thrilled to death about the way the rooms look
017and the new restrooms and everyone's very excited. So, it was, you know, uh, I'll say a challenging week getting everyone moved and in and settled, but everything is great today and we are ready to just continue on. Any questions for me? I just want to echo one thing that you had in your report along that lines. Anytime you do construction while you're still in the building or construction while you still live in the house is always tough and kudos to to y'all staff. Same way at the high school that there's going to be lots of shuffling around over the next two or three years. The end product is going to be awesome. So, we do appreciate everyone's shuffling and and ability to Yes. And we definitely couldn't do it without technology and maintenance and our
018custodial staff. I mean, we, you know, forget something and we reach out and they come over and help us right away. And so, we just greatly appreciate all they do to support the teachers through the move. Yes. Okay. Thank you. Thanks. Now, we'll go to Kendra. Well, we know everything is not great. It is fabulous at kinder. But now this is the really exciting time of year for these kids because you know the teachers have worked with them all year long and it's like okay am I getting through? Is it are they learning? Are they getting it? It just seems that March and April are magical for those little kids because the light bulb comes on and they start reading and knowing it and they're reading their decodables now and it's just really really exciting
019with those little kids. So, but everything else is great. Do you have any questions? Good. Thanks. Thank you very much. And directors, we'll start off. Miss Walker, I don't think I have anything to add unless you have any questions. I did say last month I was going to be gone. I did write it in my report even though y'all were hunting. My granddaughter had surgery. I wasn't really picking on you, Shel. I was just going to mention you're missing. They just missed your presence. Anything else? Thank you very much. Maintenance, Mr. Kim. I don't really have much to add other than we uh when we had the big wind the other day. We had five condensing units blow over on top of the auditorium at junior high. Uh we got those all set back up.
020I think we might do a little bit of line repair on a couple of them. But I think everything will be okay with them. That wind did a job on conduit all over the roof and all kinds of stuff. But other than that, we're still still working. Question questions. Anything else? Thank you very much. Thank you. Transportation. Yeah. Jumped up a couple spots this time. Thank you. Following on his list. Yes. The only update I have is I talked to uh Rick at the Leick Bus Sales and our bus is pretty much done. our new Ranger. I received pictures. Oh, was that Friday? Maybe Friday. And think it looks good. It It looks great. It looks just like the other ones, but it looks great. Um the guy who was supposed to put hands on
021the bus today was out. So hopefully in the next couple days, they're doing the final final checklist, final walkthrough, and it'll be ready to go. So, I'll be in touch with them on what the next step is and we'll be hopefully bringing home a bus within say a week or so, maybe even this week they haven't finished. We'll just see what happens. What are the graphic on? It literally looks like the other but it's identical. Yeah. I'm going to highlight one thing Chad in here just for for those that are watching as well with the buses with some of the issues that we've had on a fuel having the the diesel mechanics class or work Frank Phillips be able to to work on that keeping that in town and with with those I think it's
022just guys I don't think they're in G class but those guys over there that's being able to that working out well be able to do that. Yes. Uh we haven't had much in the past few months, but they're finishing up the bus that that they've been working on that they're putting back together for us that had the engine trouble, and then they'll be taking on another another one for us. So, great great help and we appreciate Rick and all the kids over there and the staff that's that's been able to help us. That's definitely a win-win. Absolutely. For sure. Yes. Busy time was spring. You all saw the the stuff in there with the requests and it's just uh a crazy amount of things going on. It's going to slow down a little bit now
023with soccer being finished. Uh kind of thing. Tennis is still going. Track's still going. Junior high is finishing up tomorrow. Junior high track. There's going to be a couple of sports that are kind of kind of weeding out. So that's going to that's going to help us a little bit because they're they're running like crazy right now.
