New assistant principal named at Hondo HS
Don Mathis has been hired as the
new assistant principal at Hondo High School. He succeeds Steve
Alvarado, who is leaving the HISD after two years to take the job as
secondary principal with the D’Hanis ISD.
The Meyer Elementary construction project
has remained on schedule during the summer, with completion still
targeted for the beginning of the 2009-10 school year. Renovations have
been taking place in the second grade wing, where the classrooms are
taking shape and work has now shifted to the roof.
The HISD has once again approved Broadway
Bank as the district’s depository for the coming two years.
Among non-action items, the board looked
at budget considerations for the coming school year. The budget is
usually adopted sometime in August or September.
The board also discussed student
insurance, procedures for improving graduation ceremonies, and studied
updates which were produced by the recently concluded legislative
session.
The next scheduled HISD board meeting is
set for Monday, July 20, at the HISD Central Office.
