The cities of Mound and Orono allocated significant portions of their CARES Act money to the Westonka and Orono school districts, helping to offset what each district is projecting will be more than $1 million in pandemic-related expenditures for the 2020-2021 fiscal year.

“We are incredibly appreciative of the leadership shown by the city of Orono, the city of Mound—[Orono] Mayor Walsh, [Mound] Mayor Salazar, their teams, their staff—of how they have worked to direct these funds in our community to areas of need,” said Kevin Borg, Westonka Schools superintendent.
