Dr. P. David Schmink, School Superintendent Jill Hamilton. Unit Bookkeeper, transferred all financial data to a computerized accounting system. The 1987-1988 school year found the Board of Education and administration reinstating the instrumental music program and a part time nurse. Both reinstatements have had a significant impact upon the overall quality of the district’s programs and services.
