Dear District 15 Families, Staff, and Community Members,

Last night, District 15 voters overwhelmingly approved a referendum to move our schools and our district forward. We are truly humbled by this outpouring of support that will have a meaningful impact on every student, school and community we proudly serve for decades to come. 

On behalf of the Board of Education and myself, our sincerest thanks for your confidence, enthusiasm, and support of the Moving 15 Forward plan. This plan will be a game changer for the students and staff of District 15, and we want every resident to know that we are honored to have your trust and delighted to be Moving 15 Forward with you. 

Please know that we do not take your support lightly. As we move from the positive vote of last evening to the realization of the Moving 15 Forward plan, we will continue to engage with our staff and community every step of the way on our soon-to-be updated Moving 15 Forward website, designed to share progress as these exciting dreams become reality.

We would be remiss if we did not extend an additional round of thanks beyond measure to so many local residents who contributed countless hours to develop and provide feedback to improve our thinking and secure the future of quality education in District 15. 

With sincere gratitude and excitement for what the future holds,

—Dr. Laurie Heinz, Superintendent of School

Estimadas familias, personal y miembros de la comunidad del Distrito 15,

Anoche, los votantes del Distrito 15 aprobaron abrumadoramente un referéndum para hacer avanzar nuestras escuelas y nuestro distrito. Nos sentimos verdaderamente humildes por este torrente de apoyo que tendrá un impacto significativo en cada estudiante, escuela y comunidad a la que servimos con orgullo en las próximas décadas. 

En nombre de la Junta de Educación y en el mío propio, nuestro más sincero agradecimiento por su confianza, entusiasmo y apoyo al plan Moving 15 Forward. Este plan cambiará las reglas del juego para los estudiantes y el personal del Distrito 15, y queremos que todos los residentes sepan que nos sentimos honrados de tener su confianza y encantados de estar avanzando con ustedes. 

Por favor, sepan que no tomamos su apoyo a la ligera. A medida que avanzamos desde el voto positivo de anoche hasta la realización del plan “Moving 15 Forward”, seguiremos comprometiéndonos con nuestro personal y la comunidad en cada paso del camino en nuestro sitio web actualizado “Moving 15 Forward”, rediseñado para compartir el progreso a medida que estos emocionantes sueños se hacen realidad.

Seríamos negligentes si no extendiéramos una ronda adicional de agradecimiento a tantos residentes locales que contribuyeron con innumerables horas para desarrollar y proporcionar comentarios para mejorar nuestro pensamiento y asegurar el futuro de la educación de calidad en el Distrito 15. 

Con sincera gratitud y entusiasmo por lo que nos depara el futuro,

Sinceramente, 

—Dr. Laurie Heinz, Superintendente
