He talked at length about the many changes that are coming this year such as national standards, tests and ranking of schools. He also talked about that many administrators and teachers are retiring. There will be another bond issue coming up but the details have not been decided upon. There is a wealth of information available at the above web site.

Kiwanis Education.
72. The Kiwanis general liability insurance covers fund-raising and service activities involving the public as well as club activities confined to the membership. Because a high percentage of public liability exposure is the result of a club’s fund-raising and service activities, clubs are permitted to allocate from revenue of fund-raising projects, as a legitimate expense, all premium charges over and above a basic sum of 25 cents (US) per member per year. The 25 cents must be paid from the club’s administrative account.
Quotable Quotes.
I do believe that, where there is only a choice between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence....I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honour than that she should, in a cowardly manner, become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonour. But I believe that nonviolence is infinitely superior to violence, forgiveness is more manly than punishment. Forgiveness adorns a soldier...But abstinence is forgiveness only when there is the power to punish; it is meaningless when it pretends to proceed from a helpless creature....But I do not believe India to be helpless....I do not believe myself to be a helpless creature....Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.
