Back to School Fall 2024-School Supply Giveaway Tonight
The Washington Area Ministerial Alliance, in conjunction with Washington County businesses, community members, and the Salvation Army, will be holding a school supply giveaway this evening for area children. KCII News spoke with Pastor Darryl Carr to learn more about the giveaway, “Let me just say, even if you got them last year, you are more than welcome to come. If you still have your backpack from last year, that’s fine, bring it, and we’ll be happy to have you go through.” Backpacks and supplies will be available for children or caregivers to choose from from 4:30 to 7:30 pm in the Washington Public Library. The supplies are for grades pre-k through 12th grade. If you have any questions, you can contact the UP Church at 319-653-6588.
Lone Tree CSD Provides Update On Summer Projects
Plenty of summer projects are underway in the Lone Tree Community School District. In what has already been a busy few months, the District is in the process of installing a new HVAC system in the school’s south gym. The rooftop units have been placed on the top of the building with next steps to include connecting gas lines and installing the fabric duct. The flower bed in front of the main entrance has been removed, and will be replaced with a new retaining wall and mulch after the lion statue is centered. Additional projects in the works at Lone Tree Schools are updating their networking and PA system, resurfacing the track, and installing a new key fob system.
