P. Lee, RRSD Superintendent, provided an update for the district.

Student Character and Well-Being; the governor and legislature passed a summer learning bill that we have qualified for. We have had 2 weeks to get this news, conceive it, and build a plan. His team is amazing. They are excitedly expecting to run a 3-week summer program this summer. Grades served are to be determined. Kindergarten Jumpstart will be a part of this. It has been stressful and a lot of work, but it is the best thing for our community and what we sign up for.

P. Lee toured the Jr. High annex. It is amazing how it comes together. It is expected to be done by the end of June.

The single point entry vestibules at RRES are expected to be done at the end of June.

The Jr/Sr single point entry vestibule is a bonus to the community due to its efficient use of funds. It's a great add-in. Work will continue in the summer.

Next year we will transition over to Standard Response Protocol, SRP. This is in response to our upgraded security moving into next year.

P. Lee mentioned the $2.5 million seismic grant awarded to the district for the high school gym. D. Sweeney added that it is being reviewed whether the $2.5 million is sufficient to ensure whether we are moving forward. A consultant will come in. This grant is from the State of Oregon.
