Superintendent Update
Thank you
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, we want to express our gratitude to the ESD community, families and staff for your patience and understanding as we went through Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) last week. Evergreen School District has taken active steps to ensure the safety of all students. Special thank you to ESD teachers, instructional aides, school office staff, district office staff, Child Nutrition Services, Maintenance & Transportation, and school administrators for working together in providing support to meet the safety, academic and nutritional needs of ESD students. Your hard work and dedication to our community is greatly appreciated!
Budget Update - Fiscal Stabilization Plan
On October 10, 2019, the Board of Trustees held a regular board meeting. In this meeting the Board of Trustees approved a fiscal stabilization plan. In this plan, the Board approved closing two schools in 2020-21 school year, and a third school in 2021-22 school year. To clarify, while there has been speculation on which schools are affected, the Board of Trustees has not identified the schools that will be closed. District management is currently putting together a plan to include all relevant information that will be shared to the community once completed.
To get more information on what transpired during the regular board meeting last Thursday, you can listen to the audio recording or view the presentation.
New Law - Senate Bill 328
