Superintendent's Message 6/2/2025
Dear Iroquois Family,
Good afternoon, here is important information for the week of June 2nd:
Board of Education Update
We’re excited to share some great news! Lucia Donato, a current high school student, has been elected as the new Ex Officio Student Board Member for the 2025–2026 school year. As a student representative, Lucia will attend and participate in all public Board of Education meetings and hearings. While student members do not vote, attend executive sessions, or receive compensation, their voice brings valuable perspective to the Board. We look forward to hearing from Lucia and welcoming students input in the year ahead!
Upcoming Board Meeting – June 11th
Please join us for our next Board of Education meeting on Wednesday, June 11 at 7:00 PM in the Middle School Auditorium. During this meeting, we will recognize and celebrate our retiring teachers and staff for their years of service.
Can’t attend in person? You can watch the meeting live on our YouTube channel:
