Boomers enter a long work life as retirements fade

Paula Symons began in 1972 when typewriters ruled and fax was new. She, like 78 million Boomers, faced stock crashes and pension cuts, leading many to plan work until they drop. Downsizing and global competition push older workers to prove value while some stay employed into 70s.

Garden City iPad plan debated by school board

The district weighs a $452577.14 cost in year one and 349600 in year three for Wi Fi iPads each at 531 including device case apps. Superintendent Rick Atha and educator Layne Schiffelbein present a two year research path from visits to Apple HQ to local demos. Educators say iPads enable individualized learning, collaboration, and 24 hour access while bridging the technology gap and fostering digital citizenship among students and parents. Community involvement and business Wi Fi partnerships are discussed, along with concerns about after hours access, device monitoring, theft, and safety. The plan targets one to one use with MDM tracking and a list of banned apps, with 85 percent teacher support and hopes to complement the new high school. Atha agrees the initiative will come, stating it is not if but when.

Stadium upgrades push toward finishing new high school stadium

Martin Segovia the high school athletic director urged the school board to complete the $92.5 million project now valued under budget by seven million dollars. The plan includes a $975,000 ticket concession restroom and storage building, concrete parking, and artificial turf to cut future costs. Lead Architect Stewart Nelson noted turf maintenance is cheaper than natural turf in the dry climate. The stadium will seat 1,500 and the gym 2,500. Gerald Schultz supported finishing the stadium, arguing it serves students and the community while avoiding taxpayer refunds.
