COVER STORY
The Beachwood Board of Education has been closely studying
the needs of our district's elementary facilities and athletic fields for
several years. In November, Superintendent Robert Hardis and District
Treasurer Michele Mills presented the school administration's rec-
ommended plans, funding required, and probable timeline for these
major capital improvements. A Community Q&A Forum will be held
Monday, January 25 at 6:30 p.m., at Fairmount School.
Full story starts on page 7.
