At Monday s St. James School Board meeting, the board approved agreements for a renewal of internet services, and with the city of St. James on creating an access road during summer road work construction.
The board passed a motion to accept a bid from SOCRATES for the internet provider for St. James Public Schools. The district currently uses SOCRATES for its internet. The new agreement with SOCRATES will officially begin on July 1, 2021, and run through June 30, 2026. They went with a couple of different bids, and there seems to be a promise of a lot stronger system coming into the school system with some of the additions that we added, said Superintendent Dr. Steven Heil. Starting on July 1st, we should see improvement at a lower cost.

There will be a few more students physically at Ames schools Monday than before, as a new state law promoting in-person learning amid the COVID-19 pandemic takes effect, but Ames Community School District says it is ready to continue to safely accommodate students in classrooms.
Monday s changes also come as the district gauges families interest for remote learning for next year.
Gov. Kim Reynolds signed in January a law that requires Iowa school districts to offer a 100% in-person learning model for their students.
Some districts around the state, such as Des Moines and Iowa City, have subsequently had to prepare for thousands of students returning to classrooms Monday.
