This Week in Daviess Co. Public Schools
Each week the Daviess County Public Schools hold many events. In an effort to let you know about as many as possible (in advance for planning purposes) 1490WOMI.com has teamed up with the County School District to provide a list for the public.
As we all know many times notices of meetings, conferences and event just don't seem to make it home. We are going to try to help out with that situation by listing the events here on our website.
We thank Lara Wimsatt for providing the weekly list. We will do our best to have the list posted by noon each Monday.
This weeks events are as follows:
DCPS – Farewell and appreciation reception for Dr. Tom Shelton – 4 to 6
p.m. Tuesday at Central Office, 1622 Southeastern Parkway. Everyone is invited
to stop by and enjoy light refreshments and offer best wishes as Tom concludes his
term of service as DCPS superintendent.
