Email Server is Down

The school district's email server was severely damaged in Monday's storm and remains out of service. Please communicate with us by telephone, blog, or means other than email. Thank you for your patience.

Summer Enrollments

During the summer I get inquiries every week from people who are relocating to the area as well as from non-residents who are interested in enrolling their students in Delano Public Schools. These people report to me that they have researched our school via our website and/or talked with others who tell them that "Delano Public School District is where you want to be" or similar positive statement.

Delano Public Schools is the primary attraction for people moving to this area and we receive great students and parents as a result. Thank you for being here and thank you to all who make these referrals.

Energy Cost Savings

We have received the second quarter report on our efforts to reduce energy consumption and costs through the Schools for Energy Efficiency program that we started in January 2011. The district avoided $6,729 in costs for March, April and May 2011, as compared to the same period the previous year.

This fall we will continue to ramp up efforts through further education of staff and students.
