District to form parent advisory on student discipline
Board President Ed Burnette cites common sense aims of a new statute that lets the district create a parent teacher advisory committee to develop discipline guidelines and establish a reporting system with police.

The board also okayed 1999-2000 student fees totaling 115 general, 10 activity, 14 gym suit, and 50 behind the wheel, and adopted the 1998-99 budget with a 30 day public inspection and a May 3 hearing.
