The potentially disastrous ramifications facing the district should House Bill 241 pass in the upcoming legislative session drew residents and school personnel to Fuller Lodge Thursday evening.

School Board President Steve Girrens introduced Superintendent Mary McLeod saying she recently concluded an extensive study into the results of the funding formula proposed but not passed last session.

“If HB241 passes, the difference to the district is $2,642,188 less,” McLeod said. “The cut equates to a 9.7 percent reduction” in funding.

Of whom does Reformation remind you: Thomas Beza? Ulrich Zwingli? James Arminius? John Calvin? Probably all the above. The “Father of the Reformation,” Martin Luther, named after St. Martin of Tours, was very inquisitive and wanted to learn from the sages such as Aristotle, Plato, and Gabriel Biel.

With the District 2AAAA lead on the line Wednesday, the Los Alamos Hilltopper volleyball team turned in what may have been its most complete performance of the season.

The Hilltoappers rolled through the first two games of Wednesday’s contest against the Capital Jaguars, then came back from an early deficit in game three to pick up a big district sweep.

Los Alamos had a big showing at the net while its defense handled the Capital offense well in a 25-13, 25-19, 25-20 win at Griffith Gymnasium.
