But he is already working to open the lines of communication between teachers and the board. "We want to be able to define things and communicate in a way that everybody can understand," Wheeler said. To that end, the board agenda now contains more specific descriptions of what will be discussed in closed session. Also, the section of the Sunshine Law that applies to each issue is listed. "I thought it was a very good meeting," Wheeler said.

The board also plans to hold special sessions with teachers to more fully explore their complaints. Melodie Young, another teacher in the district who'd had problems with board policies, said Thursday's meeting was a step forward. "I feel pretty good about it," she said.

COMMERCIAL BURGLARIES The following were reported to Springfield police: By Traci Shurtey News-Leader REEDS SPRING Teachers in Reeds Spring hope the change they saw at this week's school board meeting will stick.

For months, members of the Reeds Spring Teachers' Association have been concerned the board might be violating Missouri's Sunshine Law by conducting business in closed session that should have been discussed openly. They said Thursday night's session was different. "Actually, (Thursday) they didn't do anything in closed session that they weren't supposed to do," said Mary Ann Broomfield, an elementary school teacher who'd publicly expressed her concerns.

THANK YOU Three young men come to the rescue On July 13, we were returning from a family reunion in Crane when our car suddenly stopped miles from the nearest town. So we caught a ride to an auto parts store. Three young men in a blue Jeep offered to help. They said it was not our battery, but the alternator. When our car died in an intersection, they jumped out and pushed us at least a block.

Then they replaced the alternator and batter' in the heat. We paid them for their help, but we did not get their names to properly thank them. --The oldest was about 20; another was 18 and had just graduated; and the youngest was 16 and a runner. Springfield, if those gentlemen represent your community as a whole, our gratitude is to all of you. God bless you.
