Parents, in the March 9th, SJSD board meeting, the SJSD Board of Education will be discussing school fees and spend plans for the 2022-2023 school year. These proposed fees and spend plans must be available at least twice for public input and must be officially approved before April 1st. This is the third opportunity for public input and the last opportunity to be approved before April 1st. These fees are included in the agenda which can be viewed by going to the district website. (www.sjsd.org) Anyone wishing to make a comment regarding the proposed fee schedule, can do so in next Wednesday Board Meeting either in person or virtually. Your input is greatly valued.

A link to stream the meeting will be available early next week on the district website . Thank You

Dear Parent and Public,
Our number one goal is to ensure that students and staff have a safe and welcoming environment that promotes learning, and at this time I am happy to report that students and staff of San Juan School District are safe. Yesterday afternoon, a threatening comment was received at one our schools. Then, latter in the evening a suspicious device appearing to be some type of home-made explosives was found at a second SJSD school. The San Juan County Sherriff’s Department along with the Navajo Nation Police responded and determined it to be non-functional as an explosive device but still dangerous in nature. These incidents added to the recent activity on TikTok and our commitment to ensure the continued safety of students and staff, the decision to was made that Friday December 17th would be a virtual day of instruction for all students. This will allow time for further investigation. I thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue to work through this situation. We do believe these incidents are related to the TikTok challenge. We plan on students returning to face-to-face instruction Monday, Dec 20th. Should anything come to light in our ongoing investigation to require a change of plan, we will again reach out to inform parents and public. Again, thank you for your patience and understanding as we look further into these incidents.
Sincerely,
Ron Nielson
SJSD Superintendent
In response to developing safety concerns and to ensure the continued safety of students and staff, Friday, Dec 17th will be a virtual day of instruction for all students in all San Juan School District Schools. Regular in-person instruction will return on Monday, Dec 20th.

Tomorrow will be a "B" Day virtual instruction day via Canvas. All teachers will be available through school email to help and assist with any needs or concerns. Scheduled out of town extra curricular activities are still happening and continued notifications will be sent if any of those activities are canceled.
Congratulations to the FBLA Business Management Team who placed third at region competition.
Dear SJSD Parents and Public,
In response to a growing need for more time for teachers to participate in and complete state required literacy training, as well as more teacher time to support lesson plan development for an 80 min instructional block, the SJSD Board of Education approved to change Dec 22nd from a regular day of school to a teacher work day. For students, this means this year's Christmas/Holiday break will begin on Dec 22nd and run through Dec 31st with regular school resuming on Monday, Jan 3rd. If questions or concerns arise regarding this decision, please reach out to your child’s school administration. As always, we appreciate and value our parents and other educational partners.
Sincerely,
Superintendent Ron Nielson
