DAVIESS CO., Ky. (WFIE) - School officials in Daviess County say retirement didnât last long for a former postmaster who is now a school bus driver.
Mike Pate had a 32-year career with the postal service and worked as postmaster of the city of Whitesville.
Not long into his retirement, Pate saw an article about preschool students not being able to attend school in person because of a shortage of bus drivers.
Congratulations to the Unalaska City School District Class of 2021!
Due to COVID-19 crowd restrictions, graduation will look different than previous years. The graduation ceremony will take place on Saturday, May 15 at 7 p.m. The event is limited to a small audience, and the general public should plan to watch over Channel 8 TV or KUCB s Facebook Live page.
After the success of last year s graduation parade, the Unalaska City School District has scheduled a parade for this Friday, May 14. The parade will depart from Eagle s View Elementary School, circle the Valley Loop, and then head across the bridge to Amaknak Island, past the grocery store and airport and finally circle back over Standard Oil Hill.
The Illinois Schools Report Card finds that 86.8 percent of teachers stay at West View Elementary School year to year, according to their 2020 three-year average.
The Illinois State Board of Education records data concerning faculty salary, retention and attendance because maintaining a stable faculty makes for a better environment for teachers and students, furthering student success, according to the report.
Rockford SD 205 full-time faculty members number 1,650, with a student-teacher ratio of 21-to-1. There are 484 students enrolled at the elementary school.
The average salary for teachers within the district is $63,732, ranking it 376th out of 1096 districts in the state for pay. About 88.2 percent of teachers at the elementary school and 88.2 percent of those in the district were absent 10 days or fewer in 2020, compared to 86.6 percent of teachers in the state.
It s a good thing the school year is almost over: The latest report from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment lists 58 new COVID-19 outbreaks at K-12 schools, the most in a single week since the department began releasing weekly outbreak lists over a year ago.
Of the 859 outbreaks currently under active investigation by the CDPHE, K-12 schools account for 251, or just over 29 percent of the total. That appears to be a record, too.
The CDPHE considers an entity an outbreak after two or more COVID-19 cases among residents, staffers or other people connected to a specific location are confirmed within a fourteen-day period, or two or more cases of respiratory illness with an onset of symptoms within a fourteen-day period are paired with at least one additional COVID-19 diagnosis. The vast majority of businesses and facilities identified as outbreaks remain open while working with the department to monitor symptoms and prevent future infections.
