Members of the Atlantic School District’s Board of Education will meet 5:30-p.m. Wednesday, in the Atlantic High School Media Center. During their regular meeting, the Board will act on naming the former Cass, Incorporated building as the “Achievement Center.” The facility is serving as the Cass County Educational Opportunity (CCEOC) building after a renovation was completed following its sale to the District last March. Superintendent Steve Barber recommends the Board approve the name change, considering the effort students of the two programs put into coming up with a name that would reflect their current and future programs. The word “Achievement” reflects the purpose of the programs.

In other business, the Atlantic School Board will act on a contract or letter of assignment for Darrian Schwenke as Volunteer Wrestling Coach, and the resignations of:

• Taylor Ransom, Washington Para-educator
• Michelle Blake, JV/Assistant Varsity Softball Coach
• Stacey Mauk, AMS/LMC Para
• Marie Thompson, HS 1:1 Para.

They will also discuss, but take no action on, an Instructional Support Levy. Act on approving a Resolution of Intent to Participate and Set a Public Hearing on the ISL, is expected during the Board’s meeting January 10th.

DUBUQUE COUNTY, Iowa (AP) — The Dubuque County Sheriff’s Office says a tanker truck rollover crash caused about 1,500 gallons of ethanol to leak from the truck’s tanker. Cedar Rapids television station KCRG reports that the crash happened just after 1 p.m. Monday near Epworth. Investigators say the 54-year-old driver was traveling east on Old Highway Road when he lost control while rounding a curve, causing the tanker to roll over.

Epworth Firefighters built a containment dike in a field to keep the ethanol from entering any waterways, and the sheriff’s office called in a hazmat crew from Ankeny. The truck driver was taken to an area hospital with minor injuries.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Authorities say two men recently convicted of murder in high-profile cases were among inmates who attacked two officers at the Des Moines County Correctional Center in Burlington, seriously injuring one. The Des Moines County Sheriff’s Office tells the Des Moines Register that 23-year-old Jorge Sanders-Galvez, convicted last month of first-degree murder in the killing of a gender-fluid Burlington teen, and 24-year-old Earl Booth-Harris, convicted of killing a Burlington man, attacked a guard Sunday.

Des Moines County Sheriff’s Lt. Brett Grimshaw says two sheriff’s officers were looking for homemade alcohol when a male deputy was attacked. His female partner tried to intervene, but was held back by another inmate. Responding officers were able to pull the injured deputies from the cell. The female officer was treated for minor cuts and bruises. The male officer was hospitalized with severe injuries. Their names have not been released.
