The Pella School Board discussed the “Race to the Top” Memorandum of Understanding during their regular meeting Monday night. The Board elected to approve the memorandum to participate in the federal supplemental funding program, pending recommendations to be released this week by the Iowa Association of School Boards.

In other business, the Pella School Board approved a new, more efficient system for processing time and attendance information for non-certified staff, received presentations on the Iowa Core Curriculum and Teacher Technicians and approved the 2008-2009 audit report.
