News & Announcements

The district was notified of a positive case last night and has been collaborating with the Department of Health. The superintendent supplies more information in the attached letter.

As we have closed out the first quarter, the district needs families to decide which instructional model they will commit to for each student in their household. While previous surveys have asked for you to indicate a preference. This one asks you to commit to a choice of three paths: remote-only learning, two in-person/three remote days, or four in-person/1 remote days. While the trends with the virus and a district preference for in-person instruction will influence decision-making, this choice would otherwise be locked in for the foreseeable future. We are targeting January as the potential switching period. PLEASE NOTE THAT WE CAN NOT GUARANTEE YOUR FIRST CHOICE.

In this Sunday update, the Superintendent provides current information on Tuesday's now invalid positive COVID-test concern, changes to student and staff entrance tickets, and the "winter choice" surveys.

For safety and to be in alignment with the Governor's executive order, health screeners will add a multi-household gathering question after Thanksgiving. The superintendent's message can be accessed here.

In this video update, the Superintendent touches on Thanksgiving and potential instructional model shifts.

Here is the YouTube recording of the first of two public information nights on the bond proposal. The bond would borrow to address energy efficiency issues in the district. Emphasis will be placed on RMS and SHS.

Tonight, members of the school board and administrators will be part of a public information session on the upcoming school bond vote. It can be viewed on the district Facebook page or the Superintendent's YouTube channel. Viewers can ask questions by typing in comments during the live broadcast. Click here for more information.

The letter includes a discussion of Thanksgiving Break and potential shifts in our learning model.

On December 8th, Springfield voters will consider a proposal to bond for a variety of energy efficiency projects in the district. This video helps explain the proposal. Voters wanting more information can attend two additional information sessions on Tuesday night, November 17th, and Thursday night, December 3rd.
