We released some information as an attachment to the community newsletter this week, as well as posted it near and around the Tribal offices. An update for parents regarding important upcoming dates:
First day of school for staff: August 10 First day of school for students: August 14 Interim principal: Steve Marsh During school year 2015-2016, the Santa Clara Day School will operate as it always has through the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE). School staff are still employed by the BIE and are still expected to provide the same high-quality educational opportunities for SCDS students. As the Santa Clara Day School prepares to transition to tribally controlled status in school year 2016-2017, we know many parents have questions regarding how this will affect their children. We will have a table set up at the Day School on the first day of school to provide information and answer any questions you may have. If you have questions regarding student registration or other immediate student needs, please contact the Day School directly. If you have questions regarding the transition process, our role in the school this upcoming year, or what next year will look like, please reach out to us on our Contact Us page.

Very saddened by the comments above. We have dedicated staff at our school who are working hard to provide our kids with the best possible education. Have you taken the time to meet our new principle and staff? I have met many of the individuals you so rudely characterize not by their ability to educate but by their race ethnicity and religion. All of which have no bearing on their ability to be good educators. These individuals were hired for their competence as teachers and educators, by our school board and government. A school board of Individuals all from our community who have the best interest of our students at heart. It is sad that you have no other course to display your dissatisfaction for the school other than personally attack individuals for their race and ethnicity. Shame on you. This is the same ways in which our own people have been attacked for years and we should be above these idiotic stereo types. My hope is that one day our young people will see the value in this school and return to serve our community and become teachers, principles and counselors. These are not glamorous and often unappreciated jobs. It takes a special person to give of themselves for the betterment of all our kiddos and community. I really hope the two of you rethink your comments, and think about how these attitudes effect our kids. Are we promoting a school community of peace and compassion or a community of hate an violence. I pray for the first.
