RC Schools brainstorm ideas on future needs of the district
by Peter Jakey, PIN Managing Editor
The theme of last week’s Rogers City Board of Education workshop session was: what are the needs of the district? Throughout the nearly two-hour session, representatives from the city, County development Commission, a former superintendent, administration and staff compiled a list of 59 things that the schools could use of are in need of.
The list included a theater/auditorium, moving the football field to the high school campus, relocating the fifth and sixth grades back to the Rogers City Elementary School and seventh and eighth graders out of the high school, in a location away from the ninth through 12th graders. The seventh and eighth graders could be moved to the Grambau Center, but the future of that facility remains uncertain.
Board president Scott McLennan emphasized throughout the meeting that the workshop was for brainstorming and that “no idea should be left unturned.”
