The board spent the most time looking at\u00a0—\u00a0and discussing\u00a0—\u00a0plans drawn up by architectural firm Garmann Miller & Associates that provide options for future district facilities projects.<\/p>\n

In addition to more classroom space, the plans, presented by Brad Garmann, one of Garmann Miller\u2019s founders and principals, the discussion also included the possibility of adding a lecture hall, such as those in the\u00a0Van Wert and Lincolnview districts, or a new library.<\/p>\n

The board plans to have a work session to discuss in further detail the plans and what the district might possibly look at funding. Cost of facility projects could be in the neighborhood of $2 million, according to Garmann, depending on what the board finally decides to do.<\/p>\n

The board also heard a presentation from students Riley Saylor, Olivia Skelton, and Alyssa Taylor on a sophomore honors English book project they worked on.<\/p>\n
