Bureau Valley School District to hold Stakeholder Meeting
The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) FY 25 application is open, As part of this procedure, the Bureau Valley School District will undertake a process to assess the various needs facing the communities. The process involves gathering information from parents and community members, while reviewing district data and statistics to isolate those concerns and develop a district plan and three separate grants (Title I, II, IV).
The Bureau Valley School District is beginning this process with our stakeholder groups to be conducted April 22. Underlying this work is the Illinois State Board of Education vision that states: Illinois is a state of whole, healthy children nested in whole, healthy systems supporting communities wherein all citizens are socially and economically secure. The new ESSA legislation gives Bureau Valley the opportunity to contemplate what is meant by “the whole child,” and from this, to consider the type of programming that will support the strengths and needs of each and every child.
Community members are asked to participate in this facilitated group discussion located at the district office. The discussion should take no more than 60 minutes, and nothing more will be required of participants.
Stakeholder meetings will be held at the following locations and times:
• Bureau Valley Manlius District Office, 1:00 pm, Monday, April 22nd, 2024
