Back to School

Ready or not it's back to school time, classes officially begin in the Emery School District on Aug. 24. The Emery School board held their August meeting on the 10th. Several items relating to the new school year were discussed. Several improvement projects have taken place at Green River High school. A new sliding glass window is in place at the office along with an office remodel and expansion of the principal's office. New carpeting was also installed at Green River High in the class rooms. New lighting is also in place. A new boiler room has been installed at the school. The coal boiler is their only source of heat and in the new boiler room back-up propane has been installed.
Book Cliff Elementary in Green River has a new sliding window in the office too along with a new freezer for the lunch room and new carpeting.
At the Emery High football field new lighting has been installed. The lights are 60 feet tall with four poles and five lights on each pole. They also completed some cement work around the bleacher area to make the walk way safer.
A new awning was put in at Emery High between the school and the shop building. The drainage was wrong there and now the drainage will run onto the grass. The maintenance shop in Castle Dale has been started and the maintenance staff will do the heating which will save costs with the building. New roofs are being installed at both junior highs. New rain gutter is being installed at San Rafael to drain water away from the sidewalks to keep them from icing up in the winter.
