Price Lab receives 2008 State School of Character Award
Malcolm Price Laboratory School (PLS) is one of two schools in Iowa designated as a 2008 State School of Character by the state's Institute for Character Development and Iowa Department of Education.
The recognition is presented to schools that have developed and sustained a comprehensive character-development initiative at the school.
Winter Weather Decision Makers
Cancellations, late starts and early dismissals have become a standard part of the week for many Iowa schools this winter. As announcements are made on the radio, rolled across the bottom of the television screen and posted to Web sites, parents scramble to make alternative arrangements for their children's day.
The decision to cancel is not one administrators take lightly, according to Alan Czarnetzki, director of the University of Northern Iowa's STORM Project and professor of earth science at UNI.
