Dear Parents and Patrons,
Based on the feedback that we received through the surveys and conversations with parents, students and community members, South Holt does want to pursue a coop. However, the consenus was not present with parents, students, and community members for Mound City. Therefore, both boards reviewed results and no vote was brought to the floor. It was later agreed that South Holt will begin exploring opportunities for a coop with another district next week. We plan to use a similar process and will be open to your questions, concerns and feedback. Thank you all!
Sincerely,
Jean Peavler
Superintendent
