Litchfield School Board Meeting
The Litchfield School Board received a visit last night from students who have excelled in a variety of activities this past fall. Assistant High School Principal/Activities Director Justin Brown brought members of the girl’s tennis team, cross-country team and FFA Chapter to last night’s meeting.
The cross-country team qualified for state, the girl’s tennis team ended up in the state tournament only to lose the championship to Blake, and the FFA Chapter’s Parliamentary Procedures Team took first place in the state and then 5th place in the national competition last month in Indianapolis, Indiana. Brown says the kids at last night’s meeting represented just a fraction of the school’s phenomenal students.
The Litchfield School Board approved of the annual World’s Best Workplace report last night from Supt. Susan Burris; approved of having just one meeting in December (Dec. 9); and approved of a membership in the Litchfield Rotary club for $440.
The Litchfield School Board accepted several donations last night including $400 from the Women’s Study Club for Lake Ripley Elementary poster boards; $2,000 from the Litchfield Gymnastics Booster Club for the gymnastics pit; $500 from an anonymous donor in memory of Bea Devereaux for the LHS Choir; $600 from Braun Lindberg, $250 from Perennial Insurance, and $250 from Perennial Bank – all for the FFA National Convention; and $500 from the Chuck Fenton memorial for Litchfield Community Education’s Youth Rec/Sports.
