We are excited to share a bold new vision for Otter Valley! This proposal, which will be presented at the Annual District Meeting (2/25, 6:30pm, at Otter Valley!), is an investment in our students’ success and the long-term health of our community.

The Plan Includes:
✅ 6-8 Middle School: A model designed specifically for adolescent needs and development.
✅ Expanded CTE: New Makerspaces to expand student access to local, hands-on, technical learning.
✅ Community Gym: A full-size space for local sports and town events.
✅ Health & Safety: Repairs to critical maintenance items (HVAC, water, and fire safety).
✅ Better Design: "Option B" improves building flow and efficiency, and allows for consolidation of off-site offices.

A Note on the Agenda: To follow state standards, we have placed this under "Other Business" for the February 25th Annual District Meeting. Since this is not yet a formal vote, this is the proper procedural way to present the information. We wanted to get these details to you as soon as possible because we want our community to be informed and excited about these possible improvements.
