As the school year comes to an end, children are looking ahead to summer vacation. Graduations are over, and the Siskiyou Union High School District is launching Board Planning Meetings — open to staff, students, and the public — to consider how to maintain its four high schools as the budget declines.
Siskiyou Union High School District Superintendent Marie Caldwell says the district is still maintaining comprehensive programs at all four sites and remains committed to college and career programs at each school. Despite declining enrollment, Caldwell says there are no changes planned for next year. The district expects 167 students at Weed High School, 247 at Mt. Shasta High, 45 at Happy Camp High, and just two at McCloud High School.
This past school year, McCloud High School Principal Yolanda Sanchez-Alves split her time between schools.
