Local: District 150 school board meeting tonight
The last time I attended a meeting of the Peoria School District 150 Board of Education I attended was waaaaaaay back during my Journal Star internship. So, it’s been at least 20 years.
I’m going to tonight’s meeting of the committee of the whole, which is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. at the district office at 3202 N. Wisconsin Ave. The first thing I need to figure out is why in the heck they have committee of the whole meetings instead of just regular plain old board meetings. It just strikes me as odd.
This is the first board meeting following the final public hearing on the Woodruff High School feeder school site.
The next regularly scheduled board meeting is at 6:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 5, at the office.
