If you haven't filled out your #2020Census, do it now! šŸ˜ƒ If you have, remind your friends and neighbors to do the same! Half of NV still hasn't completed it, and our state deserves our fair share of federal funding. @NVCensus2020 census.nv.gov

While we have so many unknowns regarding our state's economy and budget, there is one thing you can do to help us get federal funding. It takes 5 minutes to get $20,000 per person over the next 10 years. Have a family of 5? That's $100,000 to our state! Half of Nevada has completed the census. Half! Let's get everyone to do it and get federal money we need for our economy. Online (census.nv.gov) | Phone (844) 330.2020) @NVCensus2020 #BeCountedAtHomeNV

Governor Sisolak Announces School Closure and Continuation of Distance Learning - This evening, Governor Sisolak announced during his press conference that schools will remain closed and operate under Distance Learning for the remainder of the current school year. Given this new directive, district and school site administration will begin outlining next steps regarding the continuation of Distance Learning, the provision of meals, impacts on graduation ceremonies and planning associated with such, and transitioning into summer cleaning and construction projects. I would like to express my personal appreciation for each of out staff members as the work to support distance learning. Please be reminded that though school sites will remain closed the rest of the scheduled school year, we will continue to be open and fully engaged in instruction, teaching and learning. Fortunately, our Distance Learning will meet required "instructional days" and we will not be required to make up the days under school closure. As a district, we are exploring options for summer instruction, within the parameters allowed under the pandemic to provide extended learning opportunities for those that would like such opportunities. Thank you to each of you in our community for your support and understanding during this difficult time. Stay safe! Sincerely, Dr. David Jensen Superintendent

Updated Superintendents Message - As we start our "Spring Break," it is a opportune time to provide a quick update for our staff and community. As we all have discovered, we are in a unique situation that is causing each of us to rethink education and social interactions. To this extent, the district has implemented Distance Learning which allows our schools and staff to support our student population, while allowing the days to be counted for instruction so that we will not need to make up the days. Our staff, both certified and classified, continue to work under their administrators direction to support students, allowing the district to meet our obligations to each of our employees. During spring break, while we ask our employees and students to take a little down time, a number of efforts continue to be engaged at the district level. Our engagement with the Nevada Department of Education continues, with requests for key pieces of information: 1) when will we know regarding a potential extension of school closure; 2) what guidance is available as we look to ensure all students continue to move forward academically, and ensuring our seniors are not negatively impacted; 3) what will teacher evaluations look like under our new reality, etc. How fortunate we are to be in this community. Our staff are dedicated to the success of your children, and stand ready and willing to support you. As your teachers continue to reach out and contact you, please take advantage of the support that they can provide. They are eager to help. As we restart Distance Learning on April 6th, we will be implementing strategic changes regarding packet distribution to ensure the protection of our staff and our community. Please keep an eye out for more information on this later this week. Our meal service continues over spring break, and we have added one additional stop at Artemesia and 95. Please share this information. Though we are in difficult circumstances, we will overcome this challenge. We look forward to throwing open the doors of our schools and welcoming you and your children back into the classroom. Whether soon or later, we will be here to serve you. Please take care of yourselves, your families and each other. Thanks to each of you for making a difference in the lives of our children. Sincerely, Dr. David Jensen
