SMSD Superintendent Dr Fulton
Good morning, All! We will be joined this week by Shawnee Mission School District Superintendent Dr. Mike Fulton, David Smith, Chief Communications Officer and Brent Fulson, Co-Chairman of The Committee for Excellence. The group will speak to the club about the upcoming bond referendum, that will be placed before voters in January 2021. A description of what is proposed in each of the district feeder patterns is listed online. In the Shawnee Mission North Feeder Area, improvements are being proposed to rebuild Rushton Elementary School, as well as significant renovations and upgrades at Hocker Grove Middle School and Horizons High School and the Early Childhood Education Center and at the Career and Technical Campus.
 
I wanted to put in a special plug since we'll have not one speaker but three, and would love to give them a good showing. Please participate if you can, and share this invitation with anyone you think might be interested. The committee is trying to share this information with as many people as possible on a very quick timeframe, which is of course, complicated by limitations on in-person meetings.
Reaching Out From Within
Rotary has teamed up with Reaching Out From Within, an organization that helps residents to prosper in prison and integrate returning citizens when they leave prison.
 
Click here to see how to join a FREE event on December 10th where participants will hear directly from panelists that have experienced the challenges of re-integration. There will also be a short screening of a personal experience of one of the very appreciative persons who experienced a positive re-integration recently.

Mission Adopt-a-Family Donation
Club member Emily Randel handed off the check Thursday for $500 from our club to support the Mission Holiday Family Adoption Program. The program will provide a full holiday meal, extra non-perishables food items and gifts for nearly 100 families. The families are referred to the program from our local school social workers. This is a great way to put some of our club dollars to work in the community in a very direct way. Thank you to all!
