            These fast last few weeks have been very busy for Trout Lake school students, as school draws to a close. Junior and senior high school awards banquets were held to honor students for athletic and academic achievements.
            At the high school banquet Pam Pearson and April Van Pelt received English awards, and Cody Warner earned the science award. Barry Bennett, Jennie Farmer, Tonya Walker, and Pam Pearson were recognized with business awards, while social studies awards went to April Van Pelt and Tammie Williams. Jesse Pearson, Tammie Williams, Jason Allaway, and Ethan Morgan received math awards, and industrial arts recognition went to Gus Niskanen, Jamie Athos, John LeBryer, Dan Van Laar, Cody Warner and Tammie Williams. Jesse Pearson earned the band award, and April Van Pelt was honored as yearbook editor.
            The following students received sports awards: Barry Bennett, Dan Webberly and Cory Hanson (MVP), soccer; Sarah Johnson, Julie Massey, Jennie BeLieu and Jackie Bennett, volleyball; Robin Wood, Tonya Walker, Jennie BeLieu and Holly Nielsen, girls basketball; Dan Van Laar, Jason Allaway and Ethan Morgan (MVP), boys basketball; Angela Pearson (MVP), and Jesse Pearson (MVP), track. Jennie Farmer received the Patricia Davis cheerleading award.
            The list of students honored at the junior high awards banquet was not available to us for this column. We will try and get their names for next week. Can anyone help us with this? Desserts for the two awards banquets were prepared by Christi Van Pelt. Many thanks to Christi for all her hard work on these two events.
            An induction ceremony for the newly established Trout Lake High School Chapter of National Honor Society was held recently. Twelve students -- Ethan Morgan, Julie Massey, Pam Pearson, and Jackie Bennett, Jamie Athos, Jason Allaway, Tammie Williams, Barry Bennett, John LeBryer, Sarah Johnson, and Kristi Hanson -- were formally welcomed into the society at the ceremony. Afterwards refreshments were served to the students and their parents. A special thank you to adviser Beverly Hooper for her efforts in organizing the chapter here at Trout Lake.
            This past Friday was graduation night for Trout Lake High School seniors, and for eighth-graders moving up to the high school level. Graduation ceremonies were held in the school gym with educator and leadership consultant C.J. (Coke) Roberts giving the commencement address. Julie Massey was salutatorian and Ethan Morgan was valedictorian for the graduating class.

PLANNING PROCESS BEGINS FOR TROUT LAKE CONSTRUCTION

            Trout Lake community support helped pass last week's $1.3 million general obligation bond to build a new school, but community involvement is just beginning, say school board members.
            The Trout Lake School Board was tentatively scheduled to meet with architect Bill Broyals this week to discuss the district’s next move.
            However, the Trout Lake community will be called on in the site selection and building plan process, said Dick Denslinger, chairman of the Trout Lake School Board.
            “We are organizing the committees now,” Denslinger said.
            Unofficial results from the May 22 election show a 63 per cent approval margin for the $1,310,000 issue. The vote received 183 yes votes to 106 no votes.
            The successful bond issue will be used to replace the existing structure and Trout Lake, which is over 40 years old. Small classrooms, changes in curriculum and an enrollment increase necessitated the bond request, Denslinger said.
            It's estimated that constructing and equipping the new elementary, junior and high school, and purchasing the needed land, will cost a total of $4.6 million, with the state paying about 70 per cent of total project cost.
            No site has received final school board approval, added Jim White, advisory committee chairman. “The board has been approached with ideas on one or two sites. There is no site in mind yet. We're trying to get community involvement,” White said.
            The bond issue will cost the Trout Lake School District taxpayers an estimated $4.87 per $1,000 accessed property value for the issue’s 20-year maximum term. Collection of the bond monies will not begin until 1991.
            Last week's election was the third time in five years the school board attempted to pass a general obligation bond in Trout Lake. The two earlier issues asked for funding to expand the existing school building. Both requests failed.
            The successful election demonstrates “the community is interested in the education process and the kids,” Denslinger said. “The community really is to be commended, but their work is just starting. We are looking forward to and want their involvement,” he added.
            School board members and superintendent Dee Michaels are now working to set tentative timelines for issuing bonds. The site selection process, building design and actual construction could take up to two years, Denslinger said.
