TRUMAN — The month of February is School board recognition month. This time is meant to recognize the contributions made by our school board members to our school district. They spend countless hours attending monthly meetings; listening to ideas from parents, staff, students and community members; learning about educational issues; participating in training opportunities. Let’s say thank you to our Truman School board members. They are Mike Pfeil, Paula Heckman, Jeff Nauman, James Farnum, Kenna Krahmer and Maria Haler.
