Rich Civic Times
RANDOLPH, Utah.
November 19, 2014. The Rich County School Board held its November
meeting at noon. The meeting was held early
in the day in anticipation of attendance by state legislators but due to other
commitments the legislators were unable to attend.
The board heard a
report from Superintendent Dale Lamborn .
The report recognized 6 students as recipients of academic all state
awards. Lamborn also said that a few
students had gone to USU for the academic decathlon but that none had finished
in the top 3 on a test where those in the top 3 earned substantial scholarships.
The annual audit
report was presented, accepted, and approved.
There were no material deficiencies noted. The auditor noted that the average cost to
educate a student for a year in Utah is $13,000.
Two staff changes
were approved, the appointment of Brandon Peart as a special education aide and
Pam Cornia as a bus driver.
The board expressed
concern about two or three upcoming freshmen athletic events that are scheduled
during the school day on Thursday.
Principal Larsen indicated he would reschedule. Board member Cornia indicated that he did not
like the scheduling of the recent football state championship on a Friday,
especially at such a distance. The board
recognizes that there are challenges with venue scheduling for such events but
thought perhaps it was time to move some of the events to USU, if possible, and
even up the year-to-year travelling issues so that northern schools and their
families and fans are not always required to do the long-distance movement.
The board went into
closed session for the purpose of discussing personnel.
