The Lone Tree school board met for a regularly scheduled meeting in the school library on July 19. Their main focus was the boiler system. An expert came to inspect the system and advised the school to have a five-year plan. The boiler system is nearing the end of its life and a five-year plan would ensure that the school replaces the boilers and the infrastructure needed to keep class in session.
Many factors will push the schedule back regardless of a five-year plan. The process of receiving ordered parts may take upwards of 10 months. Work will likely require two straight summers to fully do the job. Despite these hurdles, the board is dedicated to formulate a plan and execute.
The boiler system will continue to be an ongoing story in Lone Tree as the fine-print details are laid out.
The board finished their meeting by increasing library employee wages to $10 an hour as the need for a raise was clear.
The Lone Tree school board will next meet in the superintendent’s office on August 2 for a workshop at 6:30 p.m.
