General Comments:

In October our district came together in Goldfield for the Halloween Parade. Students and staff dressed up and paraded through Goldfield Courthouse, Sheriff’s office, local businesses and school offices. This parade includes walking down the mainstreet of the town and a parade never goes by without multiple semi-trucks honking their horns in response to the children. In November, we will be celebrating our Thanksgiving District gather/Science Fair to be held in Dyer. Watch for flyers coming home with dates and times, as-well-as our webpage and school Facebook pages.

PLC/Safety Committee:

This November we will have our Safety Committee meeting on November 5th, Election Day! Site leaders and district staff will review our newest safety practice of holding whole district emergency drills during key district activities so that everyone knows what to do, even if something happens while they are on the far side of the district from their normal assignment.

District Facilities and Transportation Update:

After 14  years of planning and meetings, with 4 years of actively working, Kirby Athletic Field in Dyer has been seeded and turned green! It is exciting to see the track ring in place and the sprinklers spraying. Our May district track meet will be held at Dyer School this year! Commemorative plaque, trees, and bleachers are already being looked at for our phase two plans for Kirby Field. 

Superintendent:

During the November School Board meeting we will be hearing from Keyonnie Hernandez, Student Body President from Dyer. She will be the second in the series of students this year, as each school will have its Student Body President share with the School Board and become more familiar with board governance.
