Five Culver Elementary teachers cut last week

May 7, 2013

Five Culver Elementary School teachers received their pink slips last Thursday afternoon, following a unanimous school board vote four days earlier to cut that number of teachers from the school's staff.

Among teachers confirming they received notices were 2nd grade teacher Tina Bailey, 3rd grade teacher Rachel Rife, and 4th grade teacher Alicia Toll. An appeals process exists for the teachers, which makes it likely the school board will make no formal decision on cuts until after the school year has ended.

If these walls could talk...West Jefferson Street

April 29, 2013

Returning to our ongoing series of "virtual" walks through commercial buildings of Culver, we just left Hammer's Garage at Jefferson and Slate Streets, and we've got a few more stops to make before we leave this side of town.

It might be easy to forget that the west end of Jeffer­son Street has long been one of the "gateways" to town, in this case from today's State Road 17 (though it hasn't always been so). It's a logical place for some business presence, as is evidenced by what remains in that area today.
