District Informational Sessions about Mill Levy District Informational Sessions about Mill Levy

Sept. 16, 2024


Dear PSD community:


At their Aug. 27, 2024, meeting, the Poudre School District Board of Education voted unanimously to refer a mill levy question to the Nov. 5, 2024, ballot. This mill levy, if approved by voters, will provide $49 million per year to improve and extend the useful life of the district’s school buildings and will allow the district to reprioritize more of its general fund for the recruitment and retention of teachers and staff, classroom resources, career and technical education, and neighborhood schools.


To ensure that our community has factual information about this mill levy, the district will host a series of community information sessions in September and October. These are open to the public and anyone who wishes to come learn more about the ballot measure and how it would impact the PSD system and our community are welcome. Each session will share the same information.


Information sessions will take place:

  • Thursday, Oct. 17, at 5:30 p.m. at the Future Ready Center inside Foothills mall


The information sessions are being offered for transparency purposes only; these are not campaign events.


Simultaneous interpretation and translation via the district’s Instant Language Assistant (ILA) devices will be available at all sessions. If you would like oral interpretation, please bring wireless headphones that connect to your device to listen to the presentation.

For more information about the mill levy measure, including support and opposition statements, please visit the 2024 Mill Levy webpage on our website: https://www.psdschools.org/community/2024-mill-levy.


Sincerely,

Poudre School District

Lesher Minecraft Tour! Lesher Minecraft Tour!

Over the past 2 years, Design Club has been busy building a scale model of Lesher in Minecraft! We used Google Earth to measure an outline from above – each block was ½ meter in length. They took pictures of every classroom and made sure every single detail was accounted for – down to the color of the flooring to Mr. Swann on hall duty in the front. They used redstone (it’s a special kind of Minecraft block that is like electricity) to power lights, run water to the water fountains, and play a special tune when you press a button at the front door.


Evie Eslinger, Esther Johnson, and Emilia Mellizo Kroll have been integral as the ‘mayors’ of this online community. They have presented their work at several teacher trainings at the district level!

Last week, this video was presented to 5th graders and they loved seeing their new school!

Here is a link to our academic honesty police. Please take time as a family to read through this information and let us know if you have any questions! Thank you!


Academic Honesty Policy

Bag Policy Bag Policy

Lesher students cannot carry any bag larger than a pencil case from class to class. Please keep all bookbags, backpacks, tote bags, purses, and other bags in your locker. We do this for two reasons: 1) Safety, we do not want students concealing prohibited items in large bags; 2) Space, we do not want to overcrowd the hallways with large bags. Thank you for your understanding!
