Some familiar names and longtime Crookston Public Schools staff members and athletic coaches are on the Monday, May 24 Crookston School Board agenda, in the form of resolutions approving their retirements or resignations.
There’s also a significant hire on the agenda, in the form of a resolution to hire Tara Klein as a counselor at CHS to succeed Leah Zimmerman, who resigned earlier this school year. The school district had struggled to find a successor this spring, but in Klein, the district is getting a counselor with nine years of experience and a masters of arts degree. Her higher education past includes the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, University of Phoenix, St. Cloud State University and Minnesota State University. Klein will be paid approximately $68,500 in the 2021-22 school year.

For the safety of their community members and partners, Tri-Valley Opportunity Council will not hold in-person community forums in 2021. Rather, the agency has placed the community forum information on its website at www.tvoc.org.
Community members and agency partners in West Marshall, West Polk, and Norman Counties are asked to visit the Tri-Valley website, read the community forum information to learn more about Tri-Valley, it’s mission, programs, and two-year strategic plan board priorities.
Participants are then asked to submit comments on their community’s strengths, weaknesses, or possible community needs over the next 12 months. A link below the community forum information at www.tvoc.org will allow participants to leave comments. Comments and questions can also be emailed to trivalleymail@tvoc.org.
