Speaker:
Dr. Berg Superintendent of Lexington/Richland District 5 was the speaker.
He indicated that he was enjoying the job and may stay on for a year or so longer. He stated that the school district was all about people. They had good people working in the district. They pay good salaries and they have high expectations from their employees. Said the schools were in good shape but need to address concerns at Leaphart, Seven Oaks and Haribson West. With the help of Helen Anderson director of instruction they were addressing those concerns. For example, they had moved Barbara Brockhart one of their best elementary principals to Haribson West. There was also good news on the construction from the bond approval. They were able to borrow money at 1% or less and the bids on the construction projects were as low as he had seen in 25 years.
