Information about H1N1 (Swine Flu) News from Staunton CUSD #6 School began Friday, August 21st with a Teacher In-service. Students attended Monday, August 24 from 8:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. with our first full day Tuesday, August 25th. Enrollment looks to be increasing; however, final numbers are not available at this time. A half day pre-school class has been added at A. R. Graiff. Several new texts have been updated at the junior high and high school utilizing the state text book grant program. As a result of the mine subsidence of the Benld School in the Gillespie School District, two classes of the South Macoupin Service Area have been placed in the High School this year. It is the intent of Gillespie to take those classes back next year with the installation of modular buildings. The Life Safety project of remodeling the junior high hall, art room, and new floor, lights and ceiling in the white hall has been completed earlier this week. Junior high classes are returning to their classrooms this week. Also new lockers at the junior high, high school and locker rooms were installed last week. Bathroom facilities in the elementary, junior high and high school have been remodeled. This work is the result of our 10 Year Life Safety recommendations. I appreciate the efforts and cooperation of staff and students as school began with all junior high and the high school consumer science classes being held in other classrooms. You will have an opportunity to see the updates and remodeling at Open House. At A. R. Graiff, the parking lot was lined and we are awaiting new shades for classrooms. One half of the classrooms will get new shades this year and the remaining classrooms next year. The All Weather track project should be complete by mid-September with the Concession/Restroom/Storage Building being completed by the end of September weather permitting. Following the completion of the track, the community will have an opportunity to utilize the track. Information will be forthcoming regarding availability and usage. Fall sports are underway. At the Junior High, boys’ baseball and soon girls’ basketball will start. At the High School, Boys’ Soccer, Boys’ and Girls’ Golf, Cross Country, and Football have also started with Girls’ Volleyball to follow shortly. Our first home football game will be this Friday, September 4th. The football field will have a new look as a result of the installation of the all weather track. Entrance to the field will be at the southeast corner of the football field only. There will be two ticket booths for entry at this point. For exiting, a gate will open into the north parking lot at the beginning of the third quarter. There is a concrete walkway around the football field. No sport balls (i.e. football, nerf balls, etc…) will be allowed inside the Sports Complex. Also, no pets will be allowed at any time. While construction is being completed on the Concession Building, there will be no parking in the junior high parking lot or along the fence on the east side of the football field. The FFA will sell concessions at tables on the elevated level next to the Multi-Purpose Building. There are many new staff members this year. Below is an introduction of new employees and their teaching or instructional assignments. At A. R. Graiff At Staunton Elementary and Junior High
