Superintendent's 2nd Cup of Coffee
Now that spring has (finally) sprung, we have begun putting plans in place for next school year. We have a variety of exciting initiatives taking place next year, and we look forward to sharing our plans with you. As such, our assistant superintendent, Dr. Jennifer Ban and I will host a Second Cup of Coffee informational session on
May 23 and 24
.
The goal of these informal meetings is to provide a convenient way for you to hear about the new things happening in our schools and also have an opportunity to get your questions answered. After dropping off your children at school, please come and enjoy your second cup of coffee with us at school.
Our spring coffees will focus on the our Strategic Blueprint and the action steps that have been adopted for next school year we will also discuss ways we support students. At the meetings on May 23 and 24, we will share the work we have accomplished on our plan and get feedback on next's year's focus. This is sure to be a great conversation, and we look forward to hearing your ideas.

Change in School Lunch Account System for Next Year!
In an effort to streamline payments, the District will not be using MySchool
Account.com
next school year 2018-2019. Instead payments will be made through RevTrak via Skyward Family Access. With the change in systems, all funds left in your account will NOT be rolled over but any amount greater than $1.00 will be refunded to you by the end of  June or if you so choose, you may donate your surplus funds to the District's Angel Fund - a fund that supports our most needy families. All families will receive an email at the end of May asking if you would like a refund or to donate your funds. In the meantime, if you will be adding funds to your student's account between now and the end of the school year, please calculate an estimate of how much your child will spend so that you are not adding too much to your child's account.
