All 9-R schools will participate in "early release" this Thursday (January 26, 2012) and Friday (January 27, 2012), as indicated on the attached 2011-2012 Academic Calendar.   On Thursday, some schools (not all) will be conducting parent/teacher conferences.  Buses will pick up students at their normal "early release" schedules.   For additional information regarding parent/teacher conferences at your school, please contact your school's administrators or administrative assistant(s).

All Durango School District 9-R schools will be closed for the 2011-2012 Winter Break from February 20-24, 2012. 

Our winter break begins February 20th and ends the 24th.  District 9-R has worked with the Durango Rec Department, Boys & Girls Club, the Mason Center, Art Center, Girl Scouts, 4-H, United Way, Del Alma, and the SoulWater Foundation to offer your child a weeks worth of daily activities.

         Through a lot of hard work and negotiations we have finally received permission to have our students transported on bus FL3 afterschool into Durango. The bus will leave FLM at 2:40 and drop off students at the Big Picture High School (BPHS) at 215 East 12th Street, at 3:40 (1:10 and 2:10 on Fridays). Parents may pick up their student(s) at BPHS at 3:40 or have their 3-5 grade student walk to a designated area in town.
