On Monday, the Hermiston School District Board authorized the district to enter into a contract with Fowler General Construction for the base bid amount of $12,594,000.00 for the Hermiston High School Addition Project.
During Monday’s meeting, the board also adopted its budget for the 2022-2023 school year.
Student Board Representative Nicholas Purswell of the Hermiston High School student leadership team was recognized for his service and reports to the school board this year. He will serve the board in the same capacity again next year.
The board also heard a preview of the elementary summer program and kinder camp from the coordinators. The focus of the summer program is to provide “experiences” for the students, including field trips, literature studies, thematic units and theater, and social emotional learning. The team outlined the program staffing and participation, the daily schedule, Champions optional daycare, Hermiston Family Aquatic Center swimming lessons, and sports camps. If present the full day, the students will be offered three meals a day.
