School Board Reorganization
The new Board of Education will be seated following the official canvassing by the County Clerks of the April 5 Consolidated Election. The date for the Reorganization meeting will be April 26, 2011 in the high school library at 8:00 p.m. Three four-year seats will be filled in the election from the following list of candidates:
Dawnna Corzine
Dennis Zindel
Renea Smith
Eric Bender
The Reorganization meeting will involve seating the new board members, the election of officers, and setting the dates and times for the Board of Education meetings.

Sales Tax
Also on the April 5 ballot will be a vote for or against a 1% facility tax. The Shelbyville Chamber of Commerce and the Shelby County Farm Bureau have affirmed their support for the resolution. The monies, if the resolution is passed, can only be used to help retire bonds (which could make a slight reduction in property taxes) and to fund repair/building projects in the district. If you have questions regarding this issue on the ballot, please call the District Office at 226-4042.

Calendar Waiver Hearing
A calendar waiver hearing is scheduled for April 26 at 7:45 p.m. at the high school. The purpose of the meeting is to propose allowing for the waiver of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Casimir Pulaski Day, Columbus Day, and Veterans’ Day, which would allow student attendance on those days. While each of the holidays could be waived with the approval of the Board, the days could also be selectively implemented into a calendar, as they are currently. Input from the public will be encouraged at the hearing.

Help Wanted
Openings for substitute bus drivers are available in the Central A & M School District transportation department. Initial training, criminal background check, physical exam, drug test, school bus CDL, and permit are required, but will be paid by the school district. For more information, call the district office at 226-4042.

Foundation
An educational foundation has been formed for Central A & M, and information regarding its purpose and benefits, and how you can be involved will be disclosed soon. We are currently waiting on the certification from the Internal Revenue Service – the final step. Stay tuned!

Experience Pride and Excellence at Central A & M.

Randy Grigg,
Superintendent
