January 12-16

Good Evening, Pifer Families, Happy Sunday! It was a wonderful first week of 2026 with our Panthers.  We look forward to all of the learning and growing our Panthers will do in the new year!

Facilities Master Planning Community Survey : 

Families, we’d love to hear from you.

Our district is in the middle of its Facilities Master Planning process—the long-term roadmap that helps shape the learning spaces our students use every single day. From classrooms and outdoor areas to upgrades and future improvements, your insight truly helps guide what comes next.

We know it’s hard to make it to evening meetings, which is why we asked our architects to create a short survey so every family can share their ideas in a way that fits their schedule. If there’s something you’ve always wished your child’s school had, or a need you’ve noticed on campus, this is a wonderful chance to make sure your voice is part of the conversation.

Your feedback really does make a difference, and we don’t want to move forward without hearing from as many families as possible.

Please take a few minutes to share your thoughts:

Thank you for helping us imagine and build the future of our schools together.
