TAKE ACTION NOW !

Please click on the link to the Dublin Unified School District website for an important message from Superintendent, Dr. Hanke. It provides critical time sensitive information about the Governor’s Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) proposal that could have a severe funding impact for Dublin Schools.

 

DUBLIN USD LCFF


Make your voice heard.  Please take a moment to review this information and send a letter to your local legislator today. For your convenience a template is already provided via the district link above.  You can also email your legislator, here's how:

1) Use this link to reach a list of members http://assembly.ca.gov/assemblymembers 
2) Click on the name of the assembly member you wish to email
3) Click on the button …. “contact the member’s name” …..contact button varies in style
4) Cut and paste your letter into the comments section of the proprietary email form

 


This Brief Q&A is provided by DUSD:

 

Q: What does this LCFF proposal mean?

A:  Will cause inequity to children who are served by growing suburban school districts, like Dublin. The LCFF may severely compromise our ability to provide 21st Century learning for every Dublin student.

 

Q: What does the district think needs to happen with this proposal?

A: This proposal can be strengthened and adjustments need to be made. A key element of change lies in the need to fully fund growth in enrollment or our district.

THANK YOU!!

We want to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to every one of our business sponsors and donors, Principal Browning, all of our fabulous Kolb teachers and staff members, Kolb families and volunteers, and all of our community attendees! Without your generous support and participation, this event would not have been possible. Thank you to everyone for making the 2013 Spring Jubilee a smashing success and a day to remember!


Thank you to all of you, for all of the different ways that you've contributed to and helped in supporting the Jubilee!!  As a team, we all share in the joy of our successes and, wow, did we show Dublin and the greater community that Kolb knows how to pull off a fun, successful carnival!

Why the colorful decorations?

If you were by Kolb Elementary School this morning you likely noticed the colorful array of decorations, a celebration for the students of Kolb Elementary.  

A group of individuals took the time to decorate the school in rainbows, stars, and inspirational words, balloons, and banners because the students at Kolb work hard every day and they deserve to be celebrated in a special way. They had a special letter read to them in the morning, over the intercom to start off their day:


Dear Kolb Eagles:
Today we celebrate you and all your awesomeness.
Today we remind you that you matter.
Today you have a chance to make a difference in this world and we believe that you CAN and WILL.
Today is a brand new day to make new friends or remind the friends you have that they are awesome.
Today remind yourself how lucky you are to have the amazing teacher you have standing in front of you. Remember they are making you a better person every day.
Today we remind you that the only thing standing between you and your awesomeness, your greatness and true happiness is you! Let yourself be awesome and have an amazing time doing it!
Today you have put a smile on our face, and we hope that we put a smile on yours.
Today and everyday remember you are AWESOME!

Nominating Committee Members Needed

A Nominating Committee has been created to present volunteer candidates for Officer positions of the next academic year to the existing Executive Board.  The Nominating Committee consists of five (5) persons of the membership at large, including Officers.  The volunteers of the committee will help in identifying candidates.

Approval of Bylaws

The Amended Bylaws were reviewed and approved by the board during a Special Meeting on March 20, 2013.

The Bylaws are available to review in the LINK section of the home page. 

 

REMINDERS

Morning Process as of January 2013

As of January 7, 2013, students line up at their classroom in the morning instead of at the black top.  At the 8:20 a.m. students walk to their classroom and line up outside the classroom so that instruction may begin at 8:25 a.m. sharp.

Drive Safe and Don't Get a Ticket

Many people have been making a U-turn on Lockhart and Palermo (near Fallon Park).  Please remember a U-turn is illegal there and you will receive a ticket.
When dropping off in front of the school please stop briefly and safely to let your child(ren) out. Make sure they have all their bags ready to go and kisses taken care of at home so traffic can keep flowing and children arrive to school on time. NEVER PARK your car in the drop off lane!


All Campus Visitors Must Sign In

Please remember, when you visit the campus during school hours, whether it is to volunteer, attend a party, drop off an item, or have lunch with your child, you must sign in at the office and obtain a Visitor Sticker.
Your adherence to this policy is necessary for the safety of your children. Thank you for your understanding!
