The June 26 meeting of the Lewis-Palmer D38 Board of Education was held after the deadline for articles for this issue, but a brief description of the meeting follows. Please see the August 5 issue of OCN for additional coverage of what transpired at this meeting June 26.
The board approved the budgets for the 2023-24 school year for District 38 and for Monument Academy. Both budgets may be found in boarddocs on the district website, lewispalmer.org, under Board of Education.
Regarding a restructuring of bus routes discussed at the May 22 board meeting (See https://www.ocn.me/v23n6.htm#d38), one bus stop has been added east of Highway 83 to decrease the distance travelled by students. See the revised map on boarddocs.
The board voted to notify the county of its intent to participate in the November election and voted to call for nominations for directors. Four board seats are involved in the election.
