Teacher contract, MHS bowling among board approvals

     A recurring theme at the regular school board meeting of May 22 was that May is an increasingly busy time of year for school employees, and that was reflected in the multitude of decisions made by the Monticello School Board recently.

     Among them was the approval, at a special board meeting May 18, of a contract agreement with the Monticello Education Association (MEA) on a 2 percent salary increase.
