Superintendent Report - January 2026

Welcome to 2026.  I hope that you all had an amazing holiday. We look forward to a productive new year at Vaughn elementary.

Over the break we were able to get some plumbing work done that had caused some issues with backed up pipes and smells earlier this school year.  We will likely need to replace some old cast iron pipes on the exterior of the school that may continue to cause problems in the future.

We did receive our monitoring report back from the OPI regarding the ESEA/ESSA Consolidated Program Review. We did quite well and have some additional information to provide within the next 90 days. This will correct our findings from the review. I began working on those corrections when I returned to the office on January 5, 2026. If you have any questions, I will be happy to go over the report in my office.

I know that the staff is working on the school calendar for the next school year. That will most likely be approved by the board at the February meeting. At this time, we also plan to consider teacher contracts for the 2026-27 school year at the February meeting.

Have a great month.

Mr. Dunk
