Kindergarten teachers will not be in attendance during the 1-5 grade Open House event. Class lists will be posted on the front doors of Sweeny and viewable on the Parent Portal at 4pm on August 12th.

Sweeny will have Open House for 1st-5th graders on Thursday, August 18th from 5:30-7pm. This will be a come and go event.
On the first day of school students are encouraged to ride the bus to school or to be dropped off using the car line. In an effort to limit the number of visitors in our facilities, we are asking that only incoming kindergarten students be walked into school if they choose not to use the bus or car line. Kindergarten families wanting to participate should arrive at 8:50 a.m. on the first day as this will allow all other students to be in classrooms and out of hallways. This will also help with traffic congestion. This will only be permitted on the first day of school.

To assist with the traffic flow issues at Highway 174 and Main, Lyon and Sweeny elementaries will have new start and dismissal times for the 2022-23 school year. This is a short-term solution until a more permanent, long-term solution can be implemented to physically adjust these car lines (which continues to be a discussion with the City and local landowners). Please follow the link to read an email that was sent to Lyon and Sweeny families, which includes all of the details: https://conta.cc/3wLLAZP.
Throughout the last year district teammates and community volunteers devoted over 1200 hours to develop our newly approved district CSIP–Comprehensive School Improvement Plan! This “strategic plan” has been designed to serve as our “road map” for the next 4-6 years in meeting the needs of our students and employees. In addition, updated district mission and vision statements were created.
As a reminder, this process is community driven! There were over 550 responses to surveys seeking feedback about the development of our mission, vision and the community priorities included within the CSIP. Over 100 representatives (including parents, community members, school board members, employees and students) were involved in the committees, or “goal teams,” who brought this work to life. THANK YOU to those who were involved!
There are three goal areas that will drive our work through the CSIP:
For each of these three goals, performance objectives, strategies and measures have been developed that include ways to support and grow STUDENTS and EMPLOYEES!
Visit https://sites.google.com/republicschools.org/csip/home to dive into our new CSIP! This webpage has been designed to provide you with an overall snapshot of this work as it progresses, but also an opportunity to dive as deep into it as you’d like to learn more! We can’t wait to share more with you about our CSIP journey as the new school year begins in August!
