In the midst of welcoming two new principals to the Bowie Independent School District Monday night, trustees also learned they are losing another as Intermediate Principal Russell Black announced his retirement at the end of August.
Superintendent Blake Enlow begins his tenure with virtually a whole new slate of principals. Monday he introduced Kathy Green, elementary principal, and Sergio Menchaca, high school principal. Junior High Principal Jeneanne Fleming was on vacation.
Enlow said he informed the board of Black’s letter he received on Monday and it was a topic of discussion during a brief executive session for personnel.
No action was taken. Black has been at the intermediate since August 2015.
The board also were presented with information on the state funding template and how it will impact the district as its begins work on the new budget. Read the full story in your mid-week Bowie News.
The Nocona City Council approved a trio of Nocona Economic Development Corporation requests and considered infrastructure work questioned by a city council.
Councilors met on June 10. Two of the NEDC requests had already been presented with the timeclock for comment started. With that time limit over, the requests were finalized.
The Type A and B Boards will spend $19,225 at the Indian Oaks Golf Club for equipment, aerifying and top dressing the greens and batteries for rental carts. It also will expend $20,000 to the Nocona Chisholm Trail Rodeo Arena Committee to build new concrete bleachers, railings, fence and platform.
The third NEDC request is a new one related to a Type B board loan of $200,000 to Amy and Chris Nunneley for a new apartment and office construction project.
