Summary

At its April 8, 1985 meeting, the School Board set elementary-grade divisions, approved the 1985–86 class schedule and staffing, reviewed the school addition, and discussed Chapter 1, a Washington Island trip, grounds, painting, and youth employment.

Evidence limits

The minutes preserve board action and proposals, not final contracts, budgets, travel completion, or school-addition completion.
