Congratulations to everyone!

I wanted to take a minute and welcome all of you back to school.  The summer went by fast but we were able to accomplish quite a bit during the time we had.  My thanks to the maintenance and transportation crew for getting the building and buses into such great shape and a special thanks to Tony for the additional work on the bleachers in the gym.

We currently have 82 students enrolled in kindergarten through twelfth grade.  There are 15 students in the boarding facility along with Dan and Cindy Simpson our new dorm parents.  We are also welcoming two new teachers this year, Rebecca Verhoeven our new Spanish teacher provided by the ESD and Lana Clark our new Voc-AG/FFA teacher.  Along with our returning staff we are looking forward to a great year.

There will be new diploma requirements that will be phased in over the next six years with the first changes beginning for our graduating class of 2010.  We will be sending information in an upcoming newsletter.  These changes will not impact Paisley School District as much as other districts because Paisley’s requirements are already above the state minimum requirements. The changes are in the areas of English, Math and Career Education.

Work continues on the school radio station, KPAI-LP Paisley 103.1 FM.  Thanks to a grant from the Meyer Memorial Trust we were able to upgrade our studio equipment and are in the process of installing a new mast and antenna that should increase both our range and signal quality.

Also take a look our newly restructured website at www.paisleyschool.com.  Our hope is the website will offer one more way to stay in touch with parents and students.

Again welcome back, we hope to see all of you at the BBQ and Open House on Thursday, September 11, 2008.
