Presenter:
Superintendent Rod Thompson and Activities Director John Janke
Description:
Activities Director John Janke has requested the district make application to the South Suburban Conference for the following reasons:
· Regardless of whether we end up a district of 1 or 2 high schools this move makes sense (even if in the short term) to enhance the competition level, ease of scheduling because the schools in the SSC better match up with our levels as a whole, size of schools, distance of schools from Shakopee, and more conference competitions reducing the need for non-conference scheduling · If we are accepted we still really have until September 1, 2013 to make a final decision about movement · Overall our coaches favor the move |
