(KMZA)--The Nemaha Central Board of Education Monday evening toured the newly completed addition connecting the district’s two schools.

The addition contains four new classrooms, two smaller rooms and restrooms.

Three sections of 5th grade and a high school health class will utilize the four new classrooms.  The two smaller rooms will be used by the social worker and for smaller classroom projects.

The Board also inspected the newly completed greenhouse on the west side of the high school.  The greenhouse will be used by the high school FFA and Ag classes.

The Board approved the two projects in September of last year.

Superintendent Darrel Kohlman told the board the two projects should come in at the budgeted amount of $1.9 million when all the bills are received.

In other business, the Board adopted the 2019-20 budget as published following a hearing drawing no public comment.

It contains a nearly one mill tax levy decrease and calls for the district to collect nearly $3.6 million in property tax revenue.
