Copy of Important Update from the Superintendent Regarding TIDE Academy

Dear Board, Crystal, Cabinet and Simone,

This communication was just sent via ParentSquare to TIDE parents and the list of prospective parents.

Best,
Naomi

Dear TIDE Academy Families,

I am writing to follow up on a discussion and direction taken at tonight's Sequoia Union High School District Board meeting related to TIDE Academy and to explain what it means for your student and for the TIDE community.

At the November 12 Board meeting, a Board Committee reported on its review of enrollment, program offerings, and the long-term fiscal health of the District. This work builds on several years of examining the District's structural deficit and monitoring enrollment throughout the district as part of a broader review of how our resources are being used to support students and sustain programs.

After this report, the Board directed me, as Superintendent, to develop a plan for how the District would discuss a possible closure of TIDE Academy. That plan is scheduled to be shared at the Board meeting on December 10.

Sincerely,

Crystal Leach
Superintendent
Sequoia Union High School District
