Dysart district sets meeting for override

Posted

The Dysart Unified School District invites the community to participate in a virtual event to learn about the override continuation election at 5:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 28.

The event will be take place on Facebook Live at Facebook.com/DysartUSD. The meeting will begin with a brief presentation by district leadership. Participants will then be able to comment with questions for panelists to answer.

The district governing board called for an override continuation election on Nov. 3. In Dysart, a maintenance and operations override has been in place since 2000.

The override would maintain funding for programs currently serving DUSD students such as arts, PE and athletics, as well as academic support programs for math and reading. Funding to retain highly qualified teachers and staff, maintain manageable class sizes and offer all-day kindergarten for the community would also continue with the override renewal.

Superintendent Quinn Kellis, Assistant Superintendent for Business and Operations Ken Hicks, Assistant Superintendent for Education Services Dr. Stephen Poling, Assistant Superintendent for Support Services Jim Dean and Assistant Superintendent for Human Relations John Croteau will be available at the meeting.
