State-of-the-art scoreboards will be installed at the sports facilities at Clinton High School.

At the Tuesday night Clinton Board of Education meeting, Clinton Schools athletic director Matt Koeppel told the board two companies bid on the scoreboards and they both have great features.

According to Koeppel, the boards would have both a video board and a scoreboard.

The sound systems will be a little different. Koeppel explains one sound system will be a part of the scoreboard but the other will have a separate sound system. He says there are pros and cons to those proposals.

Superintendent Drew Goebel reminds, for those who may be critical of more projects for athletic facilities, the district has invested a great deal at the schools in recent years.

According to Goebel, as EAVs in the district go up, the amount of revenue they bring in goes right into the operations and maintenance budget. Plus, with the opportunity to generate revenue from the boards, the boards will eventually become revenue generators.

The Board of Education approved the bid for OES at roughly $339,000.
