More About Us…

“The board is studying the enrollment/capacity challenges we're facing at several schools,

including, of course, Hamilton / Van Hise.  The board has not committed to a particular solution, nor has

the board committed to an April 2015 facility referendum.  

However, the Board has put this topic near the top of its priority list for the next several months,

with the expectation that key decisions will be made by the end of January.”

-Mike Barry, Assistant Superintendent of Business Services-
