Democrat photo/Garrett Fuller — California R-I Board of Education President Brandon Dunham, left, reaches to shake daughter Peyton Dunham's hand after awarding her a proclamation from the board at its Dec. 20 meeting for helping California FFA's Conduct of Chapter Meetings team earn a "gold" rating — and place in the top 12 nationally — in November at the National FFA Convention in Indianapolis. Other members, pictured from left, include Addison Arnold, Lucas Blecke-Ferreira, Tayte Higgins and Isaac Haile. Preston McMillian, Haden Oliver, Cody Schneider and Kayson White were absent.
The California R-I Board of Education had a difficult decision to make for student transportation services Dec. 20.
After requesting student transportation service bids for nearly a month, the district only received one bid -- from Durham School Services of Central Missouri.
