¿Qué es el Censo?  Según el mandato del al Constitución de los Estados Unidos, el censo es un recuento de todas las personas que viven en el país, y que se realiza una vez cada década.  Cuando sabemos cuántas personas viven en tu comunidad, las organizaciones y las empresas están major equipadas par evaluar los servicios y programas necesarios, cómo por ejemplo clínicas, escuelas y carreteras.  El censo también determina como se distribuyen los escaños en el Congreso entre los 50 estados.  En marzo de 2020, la Oficina del Censo de Estados Unidos enviará a cada hogar una invitación para completer un sencillo cuestionario sobre quién vive en tu dirección el 1 de abril.  Tendrás la oportunidad de responder en linea, por teléfono o por correo, y la ley federal mantiene esas respuestas seguras y protegidas.

Due to our traditional and balanced calendars becoming more aligned, our School Board has approved a universal calendar that will begin in the 2020-21 school year. This fall, we surveyed staff, parents, and the community, which generated feedback for drafting a single calendar. The use of a universal calendar will increase efficiencies and eliminate some operational and scheduling challenges. It will not impact the school assignments of our current students. Eagle Creek, Fishback, and New Augusta North and South will continue as “choice” schools but with a curriculum concentration. The School Board will consider feedback from the district survey and focus group discussions as they finalize the concentration in the new year. Thank you for your patience, input, and support throughout this process.

A Message from the Superintendent:

At our school board meeting on Thursday, January 9th, I shared my concerns about the Indiana Department of Education’s current process for determining graduation rates. Additionally, I asserted my belief that the graduation rate that was publicized for Pike High School was inaccurate. As the Superintendent of Schools, I am unwilling to allow a flawed system to impact our high school, our district, and most importantly, our community.

There are several factors outside of our control that impact our graduation rate. For example, if a student withdraws from Pike High School and moves to another country, that student will be counted as a drop out unless we receive a transcript request. Our exceptional learners are counted as drop outs after 4 years even though we provide services until they are 22 years old. I was particularly frustrated by a situation we encountered this year, when students who left Pike High School to participate in another accredited opportunity such as Job Corp were considered drop outs and counted against our 2019 graduation rate even though we could prove they received an Indiana Diploma.
