Is the district lowering class sizes as part of this plan?

If approved by voters, the district would be able to maintain its class sizes. A scientifically-valid community survey this past January revealed that the majority of parents and caregivers would prefer to focus on programming and other individualized learning options when they learned how much a change would cost. To lower class sizes by just one student across all grade levels, approximately $5.2 million a year would be needed.

Recently, our district has been fortunate to receive COVID-related funding. These were one-time funds to cover the increased cost of providing instruction during the pandemic that won’t be available much longer.

The total funds received: $43,814,660. This includes ESSER Funds I, II and III, GEER I and the Community Reinvestment Fund (CRF).
