There is a required immunization for current 7th & 11th graders for the upcoming 2024-2025 school year. If your student does require these immunizations you should have received notice in the mail. If your child will participate in the clinic the appropriate forms must be submitted before services are given.

Proposition KIDS Town Hall and Information
Here's a sample of what just went out in the weekly District Newsletter. The link to sign up is at the end:
The weather wasn't very cooperative last night, but we had a couple of community members who up to learn about Prop KIDS and then take a tour of the greenhouse which was paid for by a large grant and then district funds.
A couple of years ago, the board refinanced our debt at a lower interest rate. This cut 3 years off of the life of the loan. Since then, both the assessment and amount of personal property in the district has increased bringing in more revenue than what our payments require. The board has two options: lower the tax rate or prepay the loans faster than scheduled.
Proposition KIDS provides a 3rd alternative. If voters choose to approve Prop KIDS, the board can then flex the surplus revenue into operating funds to help with building and equipment repairs and maintenance before things reach a point where the board has to ask for more debt to be taken out. The money the board flexes into operating funds earns a much higher interest rate than what we are paying on our debt providing even more revenue for the district.
If voters don't approve Prop KIDS, then the debt will be paid off around 2028 or so and then the $1.0086 levy will fall off. This will drop district revenues by about $460,000 per year...or about 10% of the district's annual budget.
The district has leveraged millions of dollars in grant money and stretched our dollar as far as we can. Operating costs and minimum salaries continue to increase at a rapid rate while state funding has been flat for almost 10 years.
From now until the election, I will continue to post more information about Prop KIDS so the public can make an informed decision before going to the polls on April 2.

Rich Hill will once again be making our own Sports Calendar for 2024-25. The company who has done this in the past has not contacted us and I informed them last year we would be doing it ourselves from now on. We have typically gotten one $300 check from them for all the ads sold to the community. I believe we can do better with all of the money going directly to our athletic program. We will begin working on an order form with prices and post it here and to Facebook shortly. Our goal would be to have calendars printed and ready to go by the beginning of August. Thank you!
