Dear Parents and Community:

The Clio School District has a very well defined Mission Statement, Student Goals and Outcomes, and Board of Education Strategic Plan. It is my primary goal that every student will be given the opportunities and assistance necessary to meet his/her maximum potential. This necessitates the combined efforts of the school, parents and the community. These are our children and we must all be dedicated to their ultimate success in the areas of academia and citizenship.

Our Vision Statement is:
"Learning together for tomorrow’s world".
Let us all be committed to embracing this concept and truly working TOGETHER for our kids.


Sincerely,

Fay Latture, Ed D
Superintendent of Schools

Tips for sending us email

With the ever increasing volume of email we all receive, sometimes it's hard to find important messages among all the SPAM and other unsolicited messages. It's often difficult to identify the sender of an email from their email address and unless you can tell the nature of an email from its subject, it's easy to over look an email and delete it as just another SPAM.

Email messages from our parents and community are important to all of us here at Clio Area Schools. That's why we ask that when you email us, please include the nature of your message in the first part of the subject. For example, 'Question from a Parent', or 'Request from a Parent'. That way your message will be handled as quickly as possible. You should have a response from us within 1 working day.

Be sure also to include your name in the email. We, like most organizations, don't acknowledge anonymous messages. If your email is about your student, please include your student's name and the building they attend.
