Seneca Valley School Board to consider policy to retire Native American imagery
Next week, the Seneca Valley School Board will vote on a policy to retire all Native American imagery from use in the district.
The policy is in draft form now, but it will be presented at the June 14 regular meeting, Eric DiTullio, board president, said during Monday's work session.
In addition, adoption of the $145.7 million budget for the 2021-22 school year will be on next week's meeting agenda.
The budget includes a 2.56 millage increase that will raise the district's real estate tax rate to 130.45 mills.
In other business, Matthew McKinley, assistant superintendent of secondary instruction, told the board that drug use among students increased during the COVID-19 impact school year of 2020-21.
