On behalf of the staff and faculty at St. Charles Middle School, it is my pleasure to invite you and your student to our 5th annual Bulldog Day on Wednesday, August 19th, from 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
Bulldog Day is an essential event designed to help our students transition smoothly into the upcoming school year. During this time, students will be able to pick up their class schedules, locate their lockers, tour the building, and meet their teachers.
To ensure a seamless start for both incoming students and families navigating new routines, we will be hosting two special orientation sessions in the Middle School Gym:
First Orientation: 4:00 PM
Second Orientation: 5:30 PM
These sessions will briefly cover important campus policies, expectations, and resources available to support your child’s academic and personal success throughout the year. You are welcome to attend whichever session best fits your family’s schedule.
We look forward to seeing you on August 19th as we partner together to make this school year a successful and rewarding experience for our students. Thank you for your continued support of our school community.
Best,
Michael Kutsch

Dear St. Charles Community,
Following the unsuccessful August bond vote, the St. Charles Community Schools Board of Education has made the decision to place a revised bond proposal on the November ballot.
After careful consideration of the district’s needs, the scope of the proposed projects, and the financial impact on our community, a majority of the Board has voted to move forward with a reduced millage rate of 3.75 mills, down from the previously proposed 4.25 mills.
This revised proposal maintains the district’s ability to access more than $10 million in funding while continuing to address the important facility and infrastructure needs identified in the original bond proposal.
What Has Changed?
The most significant change is the proposed millage rate:
Previous proposal: 4.25 mills
Revised proposal: 3.75 mills
Reduction: 0.50 mills
Funding: More than $10 million remains available for the planned scope of projects
The Board believes this revised proposal provides an opportunity to move forward with needed improvements while reducing the millage burden for property owners.
Why Is the Bond Necessary?
The proposed bond is designed to address long-term facility, infrastructure, safety, security, and educational needs throughout the district. These investments are intended to support our students and staff while preserving and improving the facilities that serve our community.
The November proposal is not simply a repeat of the August vote. The Board listened to the outcome of the August election and has taken steps to reduce the millage rate while preserving the ability to complete more than $10 million in needed projects.
We recognize that any bond proposal represents a significant decision for our community. We also recognize the responsibility that comes with asking our residents to make an investment in St. Charles Community Schools.
As we move toward November, the district will continue to provide clear and factual information about the proposal, the projects included, the financial impact, and the long-term benefits to our students and community.
Our goal remains the same: to provide our students with safe, modern, and effective learning environments while being responsible stewards of our community’s resources.
We encourage all St. Charles Community Schools residents to become informed, review the details of the proposal, and participate in the November election.
Together, we can continue building a stronger future for St. Charles Community Schools.
Sincerely,
Ronald Stanley
Superintendent
St. Charles Community Schools

Dear St. Charles Community,
I want to sincerely thank everyone who participated in yesterday’s bond election. Whether you attended an informational meeting, asked thoughtful questions, volunteered your time, helped share accurate information, or simply exercised your right to vote, thank you for your engagement and your commitment to our school district.
While we are disappointed that the bond proposal was not approved, we respect the decision of our community. The needs identified throughout this process remain, and the Board of Education and district administration will take time to thoughtfully evaluate our next steps and determine the best path forward for our students, staff, and community.
Although the outcome was not what we had hoped for, one thing has not changed—our commitment to the children of St. Charles Community Schools. Every day, our students deserve a safe, supportive, and high-quality educational experience, and that remains our highest priority. Our mission does not begin or end with an election.
Over the past year, we have accomplished a great deal together by focusing on relationships, transparency, and continuous improvement. Those values will continue to guide our work. We will keep listening, learning, and working alongside our community as we address the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
I remain incredibly proud to serve this district and grateful for the dedicated staff, families, volunteers, and community members who care so deeply about our schools. Together, we will continue to build on the progress we’ve made and remain focused on providing outstanding opportunities for every Bulldog.
Thank you again for your support, your participation, and your belief in St. Charles Community Schools. We look forward to continuing this important work together.
With gratitude,
Ronald Stanley
Superintendent
St. Charles Community Schools
