There’s still much work left to do, but two major hurdles have been overcome with regard to the a Whole Grade Sharing Agreement between the Guthrie Center and Adair-Casey School District. Wednesday night (1/27), the Guthrie Center School Board approved the 5-year agreement, which will become effective July 1st. The Adair-Casey Board had previously approved the agreement during their meeting on Jan. 20th.

School officials say the agreement will mean more, and varied course opportunities for students, including some courses not previously being added. The agreement stipulates each district will maintain its own kindergarten-6th grade program. 7th and 8th grade students will attend class at Adair-Casey. 9th-12th graders will attend high school in Guthrie Center.
