LAST 4 years accomplishments

What has happened in MVLA and activities for which I have advocated!

*selection of superintendent Nellie Meyer, welcoming many new staff.
*Ushering MVLA though the rough COVID times with calm, consistent, and collaborative actions. MVLA procedures used by many other districts as models of efficient and effective management of COVID. As part of COVID ALL (students and teachers) were forced into rapid learning about hardware and software needed to do on-line school. Digital divide needs were addressed and network and other school infrastructure was upgraded. As well as, MVLA upgraded heating and airconditioning and filtering and installed equipment to address campus safety.

*Facilitating installation of lights at the fields of MVHS and LAHS.
*More and more wellness services and restructuring.
