The Hamilton Southeastern (HSE) School board fielded a number of comments and questions on new Literacy Resources for grades kindergarten through 6th grade after making the material available to parents and the public. After considering all the feedback, the board voted 6-1 Tuesday morning approving the recommended resources, with Suzanne Thomas the lone no vote.
The board unanimously passed updated World Language resources, with the Spanish curriculum put on pause for the moment allowing further consideration. The board is allowing school administrators to move forward with updated resources in the French and German World Language programs only.
Finally, the board accepted a bid of $1.178 million to replace the Riverside tennis courts with a concrete surface. The concrete bid was a bit higher compared to the asphalt bid ($1.018 million) but the concrete surface has a 10-year warranty compared to the 2-year warranty offered for asphalt.
