At the Knights Ferry School board meeting there were a lot of concerned parents attending because of proposed cuts to teacher’s salaries and not the administration. The negotiations have been ongoing and nothing is settled. Under action items, the Board approved all. The API score for Knights Ferry was 823. Activities in the future are the Sixth Grade Outdoor Education Camp September 19-23. The annual Jog-a-thon will be October 14th.
