Headed to the Owen J. Roberts workshop meeting Monday because, sadly, it was the most interesting agenda out there.
And considering how uninteresting the meeting was, that's saying something.
Perhaps the most significant item had to do with the new $28 million East Coventry Elementary School, or perhaps more importantly, what comes next.
As it turns out, that building is the last item on a capital improvements plan from several years ago, and that means its time for a new one, and a feasibility study to help determine costs.
Although a committee has already been formed -- comprised of staff, school board members, parents and administrators -- the meetings are not open to the public.
But one meeting is, and it will be a Town Hall meeting held Nov. 1 at Owen J. Roberts High School. Other public meetings may be scheduled, but as of now, this will be the general public's only chance to have input.
Other than that, the bulk of the meeting was consumed by talking about the district's standardized test scores -- the PSSA, the Keystone and Advance Placement. They're all awfully good, but of course, they would like to make them better.
