Times staff report
Carbon County School District 1 administrators wiped their brows a week ago when Superintendent Peggy Sanders returned to Rawlins from Cheyenne to report that the district’s building funds for a new elementary complex in Highland Hills were secure.
Administrators from Goshen County School District presented their case to the state House for renewed funding from the School Facilities Commission to continue work that extended beyond the previously allotted time.
That was in late February, and on the last day of the month, district officials from across the state awaited the final vote on the matter. District 1, low on the hierarchical list of funding from the School Facilities Commission, saw one of the biggest threats from the lobbying efforts.
“It died on the floor,” Sanders said of Goshen County’s bill. She didn’t know how the official vote was split, but was eager to report that construction would go forward for the Highland Hills complex.

District 2 plans schedule talks
Times staff report
Carbon County District 2 School Board members are scheduled to hold a discussion on school schedules during a Tuesday meeting at 7:30 p.m. at the district’s central office in Saratoga.
The meeting is open to the public.
Talks should center on school schedule survey results and about how the schedules might change to accommodate school staff and the community. The Tuesday discussion should serve as the foundation for the board members’ votes during an upcoming board meeting next week.
Prior to the discussion, board members are set to participate in the second of a series of workshops with the Wyoming School Boards Association from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.
The focus of the workshop, which is open to the public, should include distinguishing when to be proactive and when to be hands-off in various situations, the art of goal setting, finding the school board’s reason and purpose, and how best to use limited time.
