Dewey Superintendent Vince Vincent explained why he recommend the board terminate the policy. 

The board would vote to terminate the policy. Next, the Superintendents report covered the big air conditioning projects going over the summer.

One of two projects have been completed, while the other one is still expected to be completed before the start of August. There was also an announcement that the dugout roof's for the baseball and softball complex have been redone.
