• Discussion of filtering and CIPA
Our compliance with CIPA is fine with the filtering system; however, it's
not compliant with an adult's request for unfiltered access. If we want to
have a filtering system we need to purchase a separate server. Basically it
means we cannot request federal funds for support. We will look at this
issue at a later date.
Kindergarten Day April 19, 2006
The schools are anticipating being open from 8:OOam to 6 pm. It will
be difficult to staff. Leppert is requesting volunteers to relieve the staff
members at lunch or during other times as well.
Pemble and Batt volunteered to help.

We received the "We, the People" grant we applied for. It will include
book discussions and presentations.
