Facilities Requests - New Form and Procedure
At their September meeting, the Board of Education approved new policies and procedures for requesting district facilities.
A Facility Use Packet has been developed to help patrons with the proper forms, contact information, and billing procedures.
If you currently use, or plan to use, district facilities, please take a look at the packet to help insure that the proper procedures are being followed. Feel free to print the packet so all the information is readily available.
To reserve a district facility:
- Call or visit the scheduling coordinator of the facility you wish to request. For TES, call Carley Puhr at 913-845-2290. For TMS, call Mark Altman at 845-2627. For THS, (except the Chieftain Room) call Brent Smith at 845-3042. For the Chieftain Room, call Julie Bernard at 845-2654. They will be able to tell you if the facility is available when you need it.
- Once you have determined that the facility is available, fill out the Facility Request form and get a signature from the scheduling coordinator or administrator at the appropriate building.
- Send the completed and signed form, and insurance waiver if required, to Larry Easter at the District Administrative Center. Do not send money in advance. Fees will be assessed after the event.
School Start and End Times for 2011-2012
After looking at many options and getting feedback, the following bell schedule has been approved for the upcoming school year:| THS | 7:45-3:00 |
| TMS | 7:55-3:10 |
| TES | 8:10-3:25 |
Each school day has been extended by fifteen minutes in order to accommodate a school year that is shortened by six days.
In the event that we have weather that would require an early dismissal or school cancellation, we will send a School Messenger notification using the contact information in your student's file. This website will offer up-to-date information, and we will also notify the following media:
