Bedford schools host year in review at Heskett

The Bedford City School District will host a "Year in Review" April 7 at 6:45 p.m. in the Heskett Middle School auditorium, 5771 Perkins Road, in Bedford Heights. School officials will provide an update on academic programs, school facilities and district finances.

A regular meeting of the Bedford Board of Education will immediately follow at approximately 8 p.m. All residents of Bedford, Bedford Heights, Oakwood and Walton Hills are invited.

The Year in Review is in conjunction with Student Government Day, a Bedford Schools tradition where students from Bedford High School are invited to shadow the Bedford Board of Education, superintendent, assistant superintendent, treasurer and business manager to learn first-hand how school districts operate.
