USD 308 Administration
Dear USD 308 Community Members,
Over the past two weeks, the District has been conducting community meetings to gather public input regarding a master facilities plan that meets the current and future needs of the USD 308 community. At this point in the process, we are asking for your input by completing a brief anonymous survey.
The survey is being managed by ExcellenceK12, a company that works with school districts on community research. It should take you 3 to 5 minutes to complete.
Please note, the survey can only be taken once per device (laptop, tablet, etc.). Also, if you begin the survey and then exit before you have completed it, the system will not let you return later. All your answers will be anonymous. If you completed a survey following a community event, this is a separate survey, and we ask you to please take a moment to complete this one in addition.
USD 308 Parents and Staff have been surveyed separately.
Link to the survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/HutchinsonPublicSchoolsCommunitySurvey2024
The survey will close Tuesday, April 23rd at 11:59pm.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Happy National School Counseling Week! School counselors support students in and out of the classroom to reach their academic and well-being goals. This week, reach out and thank your school counselors for all they do! #NSCW24
USD 308 is cancelling school for Wednesday, January 10.
As winter weather conditions persist, the accumulation of snow in school parking lots has created challenging and potentially hazardous conditions, raising concerns for safe vehicle navigation during drop-off and pick-up times. There are additional power outages at schools in which we are working to resolve.
The additional day will allow USD 308 maintenance crews to clear lots and sidewalks in preparation for parent-teacher conferences on Thursday. Please stay safe and warm. We look forward to seeing parents on Thursday and students on Tuesday, January 16 when school resumes.
Thursday, January 11 – No school due to Parent-Teacher Conferences
Friday, January 12 – No School
Monday, January 15 – No School, Martin Luther King Holiday
Dear Salthawk Family, USD 308 will NOT be in session tomorrow, Tuesday, January 9th due to the impending weather forecast. The district will be closed. Stay warm and stay safe!
Dear Salthawks, School is canceled for today, Friday, January 5th.
USD 308 Board approves out-of-district policy, Allen name discussion
The Hutchinson USD 308 Board of Education approved a policy determining the capacity amounts of each school and measurements of good standing in the district.
The new policy stems from a Kansas State Legislature law that mandates districts calculate capacities for each individual school building, making it easier for out-of-district students to transfer to another school.
Superintendent Dr. Dawn Johnson explained to the board that while educators have been previously counting attendance, the practice is now officially on the books.
“The legislature passed a new statute last year. It’s something educators have been doing, but it’s now law. We have to put our practice in policy,” Johnson said.
Johnson also said that the district has had conversations on what constitutes good standing and that academics are not considered during that discussion. She also said that she would speak with principals from each school to determine the estimated capacity and what constitutes good standing in the district.

Congratulations to Hutchinson AD Jon McLean. Jon completed the coursework and passed the exam to earn the title of Certified Athletic Administrator by the NIAAA. Jon is one of the Best of the Best!

Today we are celebrating our ‘subs’ and wrapping up American Education Week.
Substitute Educators play a vital role in the maintenance and continuity of daily education. These professional educators provide a critical link in the education of our students by serving as a bridge to provide continued quality education in the temporary absence of regular classroom educators.
Give us a like and a share if you think substitute educators are awesome!
