With less than a week until the November 5th election here is one more quick summary of the operational referendum question on the ballot.
You may notice an update to the 2024 mill rate after the School Board met and approved the mill rate last week at a rate better than anticipated. The most current numbers increase our confidence in our projections that renewing the current operational funding levels will allow us to maintain our goal of a steady to decreasing mill rate in years to come.

The Spanish 4 class built an ofrenda as the students gear up to celebrate Día de los Muertos next week. Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a holiday dedicated to honoring loved ones that have passed away. It is believed that this is the one time that the spirits of loved ones return to their families on the day of the dead each year. Ofrendas are built in houses to honor the loved ones. Students are invited to bring in a photo of family or friends that have passed away to place on the class ofrenda.
La clase de español 4 construyó una ofrenda para celebrar el Día de Muertos durante la semana que viene. Día de Muertos, o Day of the Dead, es un día de fiesta dedicado a honrar a los seres queridos que han muerto. Se cree que Día de Muertos es el tiempo en que los espíritus de los seres queridos regresan a sus familias cada año. La gente hace ofrendas en su casa para honrar a sus seres queridos. Los estudiantes son invitados a traer una foto de un amigo o un miembro de su familia que ha muerto para poner en la ofrenda.
