WILLIAMSFIELD – The Williamsfield School Board voted Monday to expand its athletic coop with ROWVA.

That R-W Cougars sports coop will now expand to middle school boys and girls basketball and will add high school wrestling and expand high school cheerleading to include competitive cheer.

The board also approved expansion of the district’s solar array to include storage and electric vehicle charging. New rooftop solar panels will be installed on the roof over the gym and the Fine Arts classroom. Funding will come from a $50,000 state grant.

Tabled was the purchase of an electric school bus, pending additional information on repowered models.
