  1. Concerning the 2017-2018 Calendar question. I support the 2nd option, due to the Total Solar Eclipse in Wyoming on August 21, 2017. I as a teacher, also would like to see the eclipse, and would request that teachers also have this day off.

    • Dirk,
      The calendar survey will be available in the near future. Please be sure to leave your feedback on the official survey so it can be reviewed by the Calendaring Committee. Thanks.

  2. I’ve been looking but can’t find any indication of whether there will be boundary changes next year for any junior High schools. Will they remain as they are next year?

    • Please click ‘Population Analysis Committee recommendations’ on this report under ‘Second Readings’ to view upcoming boundary changes. If you have additional questions about specific changes, please don’t hesitate to contact the Planning & Boundaries Department – 385-646-4123
