Board Member from Division 1: Greg Willis, alway 1st
2013-08-23 - 1204 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY - Photo By Ed Waggener. First Division School Board Member Greg Willis has, from his first days on the school board, made it a practice to be the first to arrive. That's getting a bit difficult these days, as Superintendent Reed and Chairman Floyd Burton are arriving earlier and earlier. Somehow, it seems that when things are upbeat, there's excitement in the process, bigger and bigger crowds are on hand.

Adair Student Transportation Director David Jones honored
2013-08-23 - 1204 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Adair Schools Director of Transportation David Jones, left was presented a plaque from the Kentucky Department of Education to Adair County School District for having the Best Student Transportation service in the state. Superintendent Reed was smiling as he told the story of the announcement of the award in Louisville, already known to the Superintendent and Chairman Floyd Burton, who attended, but not to Mr. Jones, who only learned of the award as he was reading, as an officer of the transportation association, that he was presenting an award to himself!

New Street level signs combine aesthetics, utility
2013-08-24 - 1204 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY - Photo from concept by Sherman-Barnhart-Carter, Architects. Themed signage is part of the long range plan included in the Landscape Masterplan for the Adair County School's Campus. The general design above, was included in a drawing presented to the Adair County School Board by Gabe Jones, of the architectural firm Sherman-Barnhart-Carter, Lexington, KY. Superintendent Alan Reed said that the signs on the left will be located in front of individual buildings and the signs on the right will be at Main Entrances. However, he said, "We will make improvements. We'll make the signs easier to read by using a white background with black letters. We'll include the Street Number of the Buildings as the largest graphic on each sign. These will coordinate with the big letters on the buildings, so that visitors - and especially first responders will be able to find campus locations easily." All the signs will be perpendicular to the buildings they designate, so they can be seen by traffic going in either direction. "And," Superintendent Reed said, "we'll coordinate with Adair County 911 and professional drivers before we erect any signs." He said he's hoping that the district's signage will be emulated by other business and institutions in the area, and if it should draw national and international attention the way the school's Mobile Gifted and Talented Classroom has done, that will only be a bonus. - EW
