Spring has arrived early at Hayden Meadows Elementary School.
Under the supervision of teacher Vern Harvey, students have already begun preparing the school greenhouse for spring planting. The planting season commenced the second week of January when the school's garden club began unthawing and forcing tulips and daffodil bulbs for February bouquets. Beginning Feb. 7, fourth graders from Kristin Childers’ class started planting the geraniums.
It's been at least a dozen years since the Coeur d'Alene School District increased its driver's education fee.
That cost will go from $190 to $265 per student for classes that start after July 1, following Monday's unanimous approving vote by school board trustees at the recommendation of Assistant Superintendent of Secondary Education Trent Derrick.
“Of the three larger districts in the county, we’re the only one that still maintains a school-based driver’s ed program, and it has been a successful program," Derrick said. "We do have a situation where we’re running it at a deficit right now."
