EVERY Student … EVERY Day!
October 31, 2024
Hello LPOSD Families,
October is a colorful month, full of childhood memories — joyous times, like running through a blanket of crimson leaves or bundling up to face the chill of a dark night in pursuit of sweets and treats🎃. Although the warmth of September fades, the countdown to Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations is underway. Before our fall colors completely fade into winter, share a moment with your family breathing in the beauty of where we live!
Addressing deficient facilities — one of our Strategic Plan’s four pillars — was at the forefront in October, and will be next month, as well. Board Trustees approved a draft 10-year facilities plan, which begins with an $18.5 million renovation project at SMS, funded by the legislature through the School Modernization Facilities Fund allocation. LPOSD was also awarded an Idaho Career Ready Students grant to construct a new career technical center.
Part of my due diligence includes gathering stakeholder input. To that end, there are two opportunities scheduled Tuesday, November 12 to share your thoughts: 9:30 a.m. Coffee Klatch at Bernklau Cafe and 4 p.m. public meeting at Sandpoint Middle School. Tell us what you think. We care!
With Much Gratitude for your continued support, bwm
Dr. Becky W. Meyer, Superintendent
