The CAM School Board met Monday evening, and heard from shared Superintendent Paul Croghan, with regard to an extension of the Summer Lunch Program. Late last month, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue announced the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will extend several flexibilities through as late as December 31, 2020. The flexibilities allow summer meal program operators to continue serving free meals to all children into the fall months. The unprecedented move will help ensure – no matter what the situation is on-the-ground – children have access to nutritious food as the country recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Croghan said the move helps parents and the District, alike.

In other business, the CAM School Board approved the Homecoming Highway Relay.

Croghan says the Cross County students participating in the event will be safe thanks to the efforts of the Cass County Sheriff’s Office.

The CAM School Board approved the 2018-19 Audit report, Monday, and contracts for a few individuals, including a couple Bus Drivers and a fill-in Guidance Counselor.
