The John Glenn School Board received an update this week on a few items prior to the start of school.
Superintendent Richard Reese said online registration is open and 500 students registered online by 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Last year the number of online registrations numbered half of the student population. Reese said many choose the online option for convenience. Textbook fees can also be paid at the time of online registration.
A retired bus in the John Glenn Community School Corporation fleet will be donated to the Triton Community School Corporation to assist in a worthy cause.
Transportation Director Cindy King explained to the school board that the area transportation directors would like to host a mock disaster. The school bus would be used for emergency responder training with area fire, police and EMS personnel as well as area drivers and students. The trainees would have a hands-on training experience and be better prepared if an incident with a school bus would happen.
