(WLFI) - The Tippecanoe School Corporation Board of Trustees met Wednesday evening, highlighting a student mentorship program before turning its attention to millions of dollars in proposed school improvements.Students from Wea Ridge Elementary School kicked off the meeting with a demonstration of their Wolf Pack program, which brings students from kindergarten through fifth grade together to encourage teamwork, leadership and mentorship.As part of the presentation, students demonstrated BAL-A-VIS-X, which stands for balance, auditory and visual exercises.The activities use beanbags and racquetballs to help students strengthen their coordination, listening and visual tracking skills.The Wolf Pack program began approximately three years ago and has since expanded its connections with middle and high school students, who return to mentor younger participants.A Wea Ridge Elementary teacher says watching students build relationships across grade levels has been one of the most rewarding parts of the program.“It’s just been a lot of fun. It’s been a wild ride, and it’s just so fun watching the kids work together, and the older kids mentoring the younger kids,” said teacher, Jessica Hiatt.Following the presentation, board members turned their attention to proposed renovations involving five district schools.The projects include classroom renovations, heating and cooling system upgrades, administrative office improvements and modifications to parking areas and bus circulation.District officials estimated approximately $16 million in renovations and outlined plans to borrow up to $25 million in 2027 for building improvements.Officials said the district’s overall property tax rate is expected to remain steady at approximately 89 to 90 cents per $100 of assessed valuation.The board approved resolutions related to the proposed projects during Wednesday’s meeting.In other business, board members approved sending a letter to Tippecanoe County Commissioners requesting authorization for the Sheriff’s Department to conduct traffic and parking enforcement on school property.The proposal would require county approval before enforcement could take place.The board’s next regular meeting is scheduled for December 9 at the Elston Administration Center.</div></body>
