Roundtable discussions are held by the Board of Education as an opportunity to dialog in an informal setting. All community members are invited to share in conversation with the Board.

 

The Board of Education budget work session will follow at 6:30PM and the regular meeting starts at 7PM in Room 96.

We are happy to announce an easier way to submit Non-Public Transportation Requests! https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=v5u71RO9uUGMbEJL6UFihEgHEMUj5ARKmpWjb-obCddUODM3VFUwUzNMNENDQ1dKMDdXV09CVDM5Ti4u

Strategic Plan—Reminder!

One important part of the Strategic Plan is the development of a comprehensive long-range facilities development and maintenance plan.  The District is re-forming the Facilities Committee to evaluate our student, staff and community infrastructure requirements.  The findings of this committee will help shape future Capital Projects in our District.  The first meeting is March 23rd. We hope to complete our work by May.

To improve interaction, we plan to have meetings in-person, usually in the Middle School STEM room.  The typical time will be 4:00 to 5:30 pm.

If you are interested in becoming a member of Facilities Committee please submit your name to the District using the following link:.  https://www.iroquoiscsd.org/site/Default.aspx?PageID=11304
