Cambios en la escuela nocturna El cambio de hora en que empiezan las clases de la escuela nocturna fue aprobada por la Junta de Educación. Anteriormente las clases empezaban a las 5:55 p.m. hasta las 9:35 p.m. Ahora inician a las 4:30 y terminan a las 8:00 p.m. Esta decisión tomó efecto este semestre y refuerza la iniciative implementada este año para aumentar el rigor académico y de esa manera contratar maestros certificados para enseñar en la escuela nocturna en Blair. Esta iniciativa añade más contenido a los currículos. Además de mejorar el currículo, ahora hay más atención en otras áreas como la pérdida de crédito y en el aumento de seguridad en la escuela.
