The Board of Directors recognized two teachers at the January 24th Board meeting. Bryan Waters, Stanwood Middle School's 8th grade science/math teacher, was awarded the Teacher of the Month for November and Kathleen Nelles, Elger Bay Elementary first grade teacher, was awarded the Teacher of the Month for December.
The Shining Star Award was presented to three students, Lindsay Thomas, Stanwood High School, Paige Johnson, Elger Bay Elementary, and Storm Ironwing, Cedarhome Elementary, (pictured left to right) at the Board of Directors meeting in November. Each were recognized for demonstrating positive accomplishments, perseverance, and overcoming personal challenges.
In preparation for winter driving conditions, the Stanwood-Camano School District's transportation department has provided the 2011-12 snow bus routes. The snow routes have changed. Click on "read more" for snow bus routes.
I am recommending that the ballot measure to renew the levy that
pays for daily operations of the Stanwood-Camano School District be placed on
the April 17, 2012 ballot rather than February 14, 2012 as previously planned.
We are moving to the April date because the measure was not received by
the county auditor by the filing deadline and to give us more information about
revenue from other sources. The later election will not affect district
operations or funding in any way, and the later date will probably give us a
better indication of education funding by the legislature and what that means
to the Stanwood-Camano Schools. The Board of Directors will be meeting
soon to hear and act on my recommendation.
