Program Today:
Today superintendent of Concord Community Schools John Trout came and just gave us some updates on what has been going on lately. He mentioned that the Nativity Scene case is still going on and that they can go forward as they did last year unless it gets appealed then it will go to the courts in Chicago. Concord is up to 60 more students than last years enrollment. Concord has almost completed it's 5 year strategic plan. John mentioned how they have three new building principals. Greg Dettinger (High School), Mickey Wagner (Intermediate School), and Lisa Kendall (South Side Elementary School). He also mentioned that the Concord band is 250 strong this year. All fall athletic teams have a winning record right now. John mentioned how there has been significant strides in school security and safety and they have been working closely with the Elkhart County Sheriff's Department. Also the school board received a 2 million dollar bond that didn't require taxes to be raised. John did mention towards the end of the program that they are having trouble finding bus drivers because of all the regulations that are set.
