Superintendent praises convocation and announces voter-registration partnership
Summary
Superintendent Dr. Smialek told the board the district welcomed about 1,300 faculty and staff at convocation, previewed the back-to-school hub at plsd.us and said staff will host voter-registration teams at select schools ahead of the November election.
Superintendent Dr. Smialek opened the board's update with a brief summary of convocation and back-to-school preparations. "We welcomed approximately 1,300, faculty and staff back," she said, and thanked the high-school cheerleaders, band and communications staff for supporting the day's events.
Dr. Smialek directed listeners to the district's online back-to-school hub (plsd.us) for answers to frequently asked questions, noting kindergarten transportation is a frequent concern. She also announced a new partnership to host voter-registration teams at Tussing Elementary and Central Junior High and said the district will try to have registration teams at events throughout the fall ahead of the November election.
Board members and staff noted the transportation app rollout and asked the public for patience as staff work through early operational issues. The update was informational; no board action was required.
