The end of the Census is nearly here and Pinon School District needs your help to reach the finish line. The Federal Funding that supports our community is based on the Census results and we need everyone to be counted to ensure we have what we need for the next 10 years to support our community. 5 minutes for 10 years of funding directly impacted by your count, please be counted. Road maintenance, public transit, schools, healthcare, SNAP, housing assistance, and more that directly impact our community is at stake. Your Count is important. Please take a few minutes and complete the mailed packet, connect online, or call into the Census to do your part. Shape your future, help ours, START HERE. Visit 2020census.gov or call 844 330-2020.

Greetings Pinon Unified Community,
The Pinon Governing Board unanimously approved an extension to our distance/online learning plan until the end of the semester on December 18, 2020. I know virtual learning has been a challenging situation for many students and families. Making the decision to extend now provides stability for families and PUSD staff to plan for the months ahead. We understand that this decision may be a hardship for some but we need to do all we can to maintain safety and stop the spread of COVID-19.

We do have Chromebook laptops available for all PUSD students to check out if you do not have a device available at home. We now have 14 school buses with WiFi connections available throughout the district Monday through Friday for drive-up internet services for PUSD students. We also have a guest WiFi network available on campus for PUSD students that is available each day until curfew begins and is also available on Saturdays.

We thank you for the effort and support you are providing to your students during this difficult time. We look forward to partnering with you in the days ahead to provide the best education possible to our students. We miss them here on campus and hope all of our students and families are safe and healthy!

Thank you,
Superintendent Ostgaard
