This week is National School Psychology Week, and we want to thank our incredible school psychologists!
Our school psychologists work tirelessly behind the scenes and in our classrooms every single day. From supporting student mental health and counseling to partnering with teachers and families, they help create safe, supportive, and resilient environments where every student can thrive.
This year’s national theme is "Inspire Connection," highlighting how they build relationships, bridge gaps, and help our school community grow stronger together.

This message is being shared with our school community on behalf of the board of education by president Jennie Vyskocil as an informational announcement. If you have questions, please contact Janelle Marotz, Director of Business Services at [email protected] or visit our business services website.
Our board has consistently sought to be outstanding stewards of taxpayer funds and to protect student experiences and the resources that support the needs of our students. I couldn’t be more proud of our leadership team and board for making difficult decisions each year based on changing variables. For the last three years, we have levied less than the $3.9 million the taxpayers authorized us to collect as a result of our 2023 referendum.

High inflation, frozen state aid, and increasing private school voucher payments have made it impossible for the district to maintain our services for students without using the full authority our taxpayers have given us to levy $3.9 million this year. A responsible board carefully looks at the yearly picture and makes decisions based on changing variables. This year, it was determined that under levying would have a dramatic negative impact on student experiences, resulting in deep cuts to our programming.

This decision to fully levy will allow us to maintain our programs this year. Even with this budget increase, our budget is not balanced. We are monitoring our financial indicators throughout the year and will be strategic about spending. We will likely need to use funds from cash reserves to manage the deficit this year.

We remain committed to financial transparency with our community, both when under levying and when using the full authority we were granted. We are thankful to our taxpayers for your continued support of the district.

Our 2026 Fire Prevention Poster Contest winners from Pioneer and Valley View Elementary had a morning to remember!
Breakfast with Chief Baxter, helping clean and shine the fire trucks, and the ride of a lifetime arriving at school on a fire engine make this one of our favorite events each year. Thank you to Public Safety for your continued partnership!

Today marks the start of Week 2026! This year, we're focusing on helping our students build critical thinking skills for a world filled with AI. Our lessons are built on these foundational skills:
Questioning & Purpose Setting- "What am I trying to do, and why?"
Clarity in Communication- "How clearly can I express my thinking?"
Evaluation & Judgment- "Should I trust this? How do I know?"
Revision & Improvement- "How can I make this better?"
Ethical Awareness & Accountability- "What is my responsibility?"
