by Trinity Gruenberg
The Verndale City Council held their regular meeting on August 8. Council Members Tony Stanley and Daryl Jacobson were absent.
Community Concern for Youth
Dan Huebsch with Community Concern for Youth (CCY) explained they have established a truancy task force made up of teachers, paras, a county attorney, and human services to help determine why kids are not going to school. Last year was the pilot year and Todd County is joining this year. They are hoping to get assistance from Sourcewell.
They kept 21 out of 31 kids off of truancy. Finding the cause is important whether it’s mental heath or COVID related.
Huebsch asked the city for a $970 donation, a $1 increase from last year. The city will receive a resolution soon. He is working more with teachers to identify who needs help. He also provides mentorship to those who need it. . .
