Thank you to the many of you who participated in our various feedback sessions regarding the recommendations from health authorities regarding COVID-19 mitigation strategies in school.

The Board of Education is hosting a special meeting on Thursday, August 12, 2021. It will take place in the board room located at 201 E. 12th Street.

Now that the Board of Education has approved the sale of the building to the Fire District, the proposals received and evaluated by the Board of Education are now public, as real estate transactions are confidential until contracts are signed.

Join the Board of Education on August 10, 2021, starting at 5:30 pm for a special meeting/work session. The meeting will take place at 201 E. 12th Street and will also be available via the District's streaming channel.

Durango School District 9-R is drafting updated guidelines for the 2021/22 academic school year regarding mitigation efforts around COVID-19, and your input is important to us. As we shared last spring, 9-R is returning to offering in-person learning models for all students. The district has a strong online academic offering through Connections Academy to serve families seeking remote learning opportunities.

This year, Durango School District 9-R will provide breakfast and lunch to all students free of charge, regardless of the child’s free or reduced-price meal benefit status.

With less than a month before school begins, we wanted to remind families, both new and existing, to complete registration for their student(s) on InfiniteCampus.

As part of the Sustainability Promises by the District, 9-R is looking to create a Sustainability Committee composed of staff, students, parents and local experts.

As part of the 4A Bond, Miller Middle School will be replaced. We are seeking community input on the redesign.

Durango School District 9-R currently has several older fleet vehicles for sale: two pick-up trucks, one dump truck, one van, and one bus.
