Announcements

All schools will be open tomorrow (Tuesday), November 26, and will begin at their regular start times. At this point, all of our school sites have power. The Holly Street Early Learning Center is the one exception and will remain closed tomorrow. Other updates and details enclosed.

This is a friendly reminder that there is no school for students or staff Wed., Nov. 27 through Friday, Nov. 29 for the Thanksgiving holiday break. School will resume on Monday, Dec. 2.

We hope our families, staff and community are able to enjoy the long weekend given the difficulties the storm has brought us this past week. 

Members of the School Board want to hear from you about the 2024 School Modernization and Construction Bond and what’s next. The bond measure received just over 50% approval but fell short of the 60% supermajority needed to pass. The School Board has scheduled two listening sessions, and the district is launching a ThoughtExchange to gather input from students, staff, families, and community members.

We are reaching out with a midday update to ensure that you have the latest information in a timely manner. We are working today toward the goal of opening most of our schools tomorrow, Tuesday, November 25. Holly Street Early Learning Center will remain closed Tuesday due to storm damage. Progress updates enclosed; we will update you again by 5 p.m. today.

Of the 900 people who have participated in a ThoughtExchange about the 2024 School Modernization and Construction Bond measure so far, 75% of those participants are students. The ThoughtExhange is one of several ways that the School Board and district leaders are asking for community feedback about the bond, including two listening sessions; and a follow-up meeting of the Bond Advisory Committee.
