OPEN ENROLLMENT PARENT SURVEY

2019-20 & 2020-21 CALENDAR UPDATES

Thank you for the great feedback on the calendar survey from last month. Over 430 families took the survey! Several messages were very clear as the District developed the 2020-2021 school calendar:

Families appreciate the frequent short breaks allowing them time for appointments, college visits, or longer weekends with their family. (58%)
Families prefer Good Friday and the Monday after Easter off; not the Tuesday. (61%)
Families prefer full days of Teacher Professional Development as opposed to late starts or early release days. (77%)
Families provided no clear direction on a spring break. Some want a scheduled spring break. Some don't. (51%/49%) If they do want a spring break, some want the break in March. (26%) Some want it the week before Easter. (8%) Some want it the week after Easter. (14%) We heard feedback that families plan winter or spring vacations around their work schedule which is why we think the answers varied so greatly.

The District has worked hard to include as much feedback from parents into the calendar as possible. We know that no calendar is perfect for every family, but it is our hope that keeping you informed of the calendar early enough allows families to plan.

Changes were made to the 2019-2020 calendar to reflect family feedback. The 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 calendars are attached for planning purposes.

BELIEFS

Student learning is the district’s highest priority.

Student learning is composed of:
       intellectual development
        human and social development
      career development
All students can learn, can demonstrate what they have learned, and their learning is measurable.
Students learn best when there is a continuous challenge to achieve at higher levels and when instruction is differentiated to accommodate student learning needs.
Student learning is enhanced when there is an environment that fosters a joy of learning, positive student relations, honesty, trust, responsibility and respect.
As we interact in an ever-changing globally diverse environment, students must demonstrate consideration and understanding for the diversity of thought, beliefs, and people.
Family, students, staff and community all share the responsibility of providing a productive, safe and compassionate learning environment.
Ongoing professional development ensures a highly qualified staff, which is necessary for student success.
Annual District goal setting is important to ensure focus on continuous district improvement and that decision-making will be based on the use of data.
