Chappell also prepared board members for the eventual roof repairs to the elementary school which, he said, would more than likelv exceed $100,000.

Chappell suggested that these repair costs would likely come from approved federal stimulus money < $177,000 > instead of coming from county money That money was originally intended to help pay for costs associated with energyimprovements at both schixils.

Good news, bad news on utility costs as Chappell explained that even though electric usage was down 11 percent (comparing 2007-08 to 2008-09), costs were up 15 percent due to rate increases. Fuel oil costs, however, were cut nearly in half !$64.049 down from $112,281) for the same period.

Preliminary, unofficial reports from the Virginia Department of Education indicate Rappahannock schools will both moot their Annual Yearly Progress under The No Child Left. Behind Act and earn full accreditation from the Commonwealth of Virginia for the seventh straight year, according to Chappell

Annual Yearly Progress means that the schools continue to meet requirements for pass rates in the Standards of Learning tests.
