Last week at the Clinton Board of Education meeting, the Board approved the district's federal grant applications.
Superintendent Curt Nettles explains the district applies for several grants and they have to consolidate those into a single application and that was the action they took last week.
According to Nettles, those grant applications are very important to the district. They fund numerous programs to the tune of roughly $ 1 million.
While the district will get the grants, Nettles points out they do have to fill out all the paperwork that comes with them.
Also at last week's Board of Education meeting, the district approved the purchase of a white activity school bus. We'll have more on that purchase coming up on Regional Radio.
