Great Bend’s school district considering calendar options and new graduation recognition

USD 428It was a light agenda for the Great Bend Board of Education Tuesday afternoon at their luncheon at the high school.

USD 428 Superintendent Brad Reed told the school board they were still trying to lock in a calendar schedule for next year.

Right now, the calendar committee will receive the feedback from the two options still available.

The biggest difference in the two calendar options is that one adds a professional work day for the teachers. Reed also noted he wanted to get the ball rolling on another recognition program for high school graduates.

As of now the recognition would be called a “Graduate of Promise”. The distinction would be similar to graduates with honors or those involved with National Honor Society.
