Greetings Rotarians! This week we will again be having an informal "Coffee and Conversation" meeting. As part of our discussion I would like everyone to come to the meeting with at least one idea for a speaker/topic and also the name of a potential new member. Thanks to Bary Habrock, EPS Superintendent, for taking the time from his busy schedule to provide an update on the "State of the District". Elkhorn Public Schools has been recognized as the highest performing school district in the State of Nebraska. Student population growth has slowed somewhat, but continues at a rate of 2-1/2 percent, less than half of normal. This year, the district has 11,365 students, 800+ certified staff and over 1,300 total staff. Next Wednesday (September 14th) will be another DC West Food Basket distribution ... please mark your calendars. Thanks ... see you Thursday ... Tod |
