The Durango School District 9-R seeks community feedback and input as a final Academic Calendar for the 2021/22 school year is adopted. In this survey, two calendars are presented. Please submit your response by January 19, 2022.
Our community supported the 4A Bond ballot initiative, infusing the Durango School District 9-R with $90M in funding for capital projects and improvements. Part of the promise to the community included engagement and support of local businesses and vendors in the bond projects.
9R is encouraging families to register for Preschool and Kindergarten for the 2022/2023 school year as soon as possible. Sunnyside will hold an Early Registration on March 15th, 2022 from 2:30pm - 4:30pm. Please be sure to come by and meet 9R's Preschool Director, Jennifer Baufield, and Sunnyside's Kindergarten teacher, Tina Henderson. We will have special packets for all the upcoming Kindergarten Students.
Durango School District 9-R and Durango Fire Protection District announce the closing on the sale of the 9-R Administration Building parcel as of December 17th, 2021. This closing represents the successful transition of a public use asset to another public entity and will continue the use of this building for community services in the years to come. Buckley Park is not included in this transaction and 9-R will continue to negotiate with the City of Durango on that parcel.
We have become aware of another Tik Tok challenge, or trend, encouraging students to make poor choices at school today. There have been a number of different trends and challenges, and while this most recent one isn't very specific, it does identify school violence. While there is no direct threat to our schools, we are making all the necessary precautions to ensure a safe and fun last day for our students prior to the holiday break.
