Cedar Rapids school board member districts to be reviewed Monday

The Cedar Rapids school district will review board members' director districts at Monday's board meeting.

School boards divided into director districts must review the district boundaries after each federal decennial census to determine whether current boundaries comply with existing laws. According to Iowa Code, school boards should review the law to determine whether changes to district boundaries are necessary.

Board members also will view the Iowa Future video “Iowa, Did You Know?,” which highlights the changes occurring in Iowa and the world. The video, which premiered last summer at the School Administrators of Iowa Conference, shows how schools are working to keep up in today's global environment.

The school board will recognize District employees who are retiring in 2012 via video presentation and honor the district's outstanding building volunteers at a reception following the board meeting.

Monday's meeting begins at 5 p.m. and will be held in the board room of the Educational Learning and Leadership Center at 2500 Edgewood Rd NW. The reception for volunteers begins at 6:30 p.m. and will be held in the building's main foyer.
