Athletic Director Cassie Thrall reported on JH and HS fall sports, noting current and projected participation numbers and the district’s interest in a fuller co‑operative athletic arrangement with USD 218 Elkhart Schools. Thrall said the district may need larger or additional transportation options to support such a co‑op and avoid losing students to other opportunities.
Board members asked for more detail about participation and logistics. Thrall warned that without sustainable transportation and competitive opportunities, students might begin to seek athletic options elsewhere, a concern the board said it would monitor in coming weeks.
