February 19, 2015 Meeting
The regular meeting of the Morrisonville Community Unit School District #1 Board of Education was held on Thursday, February 19, 2015 in the unit office.
The Building and Grounds Committee had met on February 17 in order to discuss and review an individual request for naming the high school gymnasium for Jim Allen. The Building and Grounds committee recommended to the Board of education that no action be taken on this request. The Committee stated that several players and game officials such as scorekeepers and timekeepers had displayed excellence, dedication, and/or service that also merits the same consideration. A future projects list for improvements to school facilities was presented and reviewed. The Building and Grounds Committee also recommended that the school district pursue the acquisition/purchase of a box scraper for the small tractor. The box scraper would do a better job of maintaining the high school parking lot.

Several cooperative teams are up for renewal and action will be needed by the end of the school year. Second reading and approval of several new and/or amended Board policies was given.
