Mark your calendar, Ad Astra Families!
The USD 313 school board approved a resolution to move forward with an 8 million dollar bond election for facility enhancements. A public vote for USD 313 patrons will take place in person on April 4th, 2023, with advance voting starting March 27th.
This project will include:
Ad Astra Academies Learning Space
District Leadership and Support Staff Consolidation
Indoor Activity Facility
Elementary Playground Enhancements
This project can be completed without raising the bond and interest mill levy.
You can find detailed information, including the recording of our community Zoom meeting on January 11th, on our web page here: https://www.usd313.org/page/raising-the-standard-bond-issue
JOIN US for a Community Zoom on Wednesday, January 11th, at 7:00 pm!!
Come learn about the bond resolution that was passed Monday night. You will learn about the scope of the project, what it will cost to complete, the cost to taxpayers, and also learn a little about school financing. We hope by doing a zoom, it will be easier for more people to attend and ask questions. If you can't make this informational meeting, there will be more community zooms and meetings in the future.

Any day is a great day to recognize teachers but today was very special. In a surprise phone call, Kansas Commissioner of Education, Dr. Randy Watson, notified Ashley (Sides) Bunting, 6th grade science teacher, that she was awarded the Horizon Award.
The Kansas Horizon Award Program is a regional competition based upon the state’s four U.S. congressional districts. Four elementary classroom teachers and four secondary classroom teachers per region are selected which makes Ashley one of 32 exceptional teachers recognized.
Today was our final day delivering Operation Joy prizes to randomly chosen staff members. Today’s prize was a gift certificate to DJ’s, generously donated by DJ’s!
Congratulations to our winning staff members!
