2013-2014 SELECTED CALENDAR

 by Superintendent Robert "Bob" Lewandowski 

 On April 21, 2013 at its regular meeting, the St. Ignatius School Board #28 selected OPTION #2 as the 2013-2014 CALENDAR.

Special thanks to the Calendar Committee for developing, surveying and providing valuable input and options for this selection process. The Calendar Committee  recommended the following calendar prioritization based upon their interpretation of the survey results: Calendar #3, #2, #1 and #4. The Board selected Calendar #2 as the most viable option noting there were more "dislikes" and "strongly dislikes" on Calendar #3 that #2.  If you would like to see the results go to: 2013-2014 Calendar Survey.

I would like to thank everyone for their input and time spent reviewing and filling out the Calendar Survey.
