PULASKI COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD MEETS THURSDAY|

Proposed changes in graduation requirements will be considered by the Pulaski County School Board at its meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday at the School Board office.

The new requirements, which would be effective for the incoming freshman class in the fall, would add another math requirement among other things.

Also to be considered will be adjustments in the proposed 1995-96 school budget. The county Board of Supervisors has reduced the amount being sought for next year by $8,000 in local funds, which will affect the amount of state funding available for next year.

The board will consider a textbook for a computer keyboarding class, the purchase of a special-needs bus, and a special education plan.

It will discuss kindergarten registration, summer school plans, an update on capital projects, the calendar for the rest of this year and the calendar for next year.
