Thursday, February, 9, 2017, Charles Slater and Barbara Fuller, members of the Pinola Historical Society, met before the School Board during their regular scheduled meeting.
The representatives of the Historical Society expressed their desire to obtain the building and property of the old Pinola Elementary School.
Pinola Society Board traveled to Washington DC in 2005 to petition a grant for renovations to the high school and was awarded the grant. The renovated high School is now being used for reunions, weddings receptions, programs, and home school graduations. If the property is obtained, further improvements are planed.
Members of School Board seemed favorable to the request, but would like for the attorney to make sure all avenues are addressed before signing the property to the historical society. A decision will be made at the next regular scheduled board meeting.
A copy of the letter to the school board is attached.
