Superintendent of Schools Mike DiFabio told the Board of Education Monday night that planning is underway for dealing with the need to shut down wings of each school building when it’s time to replace windows and some ceiling tiles.
The district hopes to begin work in April, 2010.
Fairley Elementary PBIS sponsored the first Family Fun Night. Students and their parents got to Zumba Dance with Brenda Wilson, play Jeopardy, make posters and design friendship bracelets. See a gallery of photos from the event.

On Friday, October 16th, the Jr. Raiders had an awesome day celebrating spirit at the Fulton Jr. High School. Students were adorned with colored hair and faces and wore school colors. Check the story for a full gallery of photos submitted by Amy Maxam.
A few days back, we asked Hannibal, Fulton and Oswego schools for attendance data for the month so far. This is data they’re reporting daily both to the state, for state aid purposes, and to the county Health Department, which is tracking the spread of H1N1 flu.
Only Hannibal has responded with data so far. We’ll bring you the rest of it when we get it.
Keep the Red Raider and the Indian head logo. That was the blunt message Tuesday night from a handful of former Fulton athletes, coaches and supporters to members of the Fulton Board of Education.
The district, under pressure from the state Education Department, stopped using a logo showing a Native American head in a traditional headdress. The district kept the name “Red Raiders” and began using what a search of school records shows is the only official logo the school’s ever had — a red block “F”.
Oswego High School’s marching band stormed into Virginia for the weekend and came home with top prize. The Marching Buccaneers scored 82.20 to take first place among 9 schools at the James Madison University Parade of Champions.
An independent audit of the way Hannibal Central Schools handles money finds no major problems.
“I’m very, very happy,” said Superintendent of Schools Mike DiFabio of the audit by the certified public accounting firm D’Arcangelo & Co.
