It has been brought to the school district's attention that public notices regarding the district’s budget must also be published in print and online in the local newspaper at least 20 days before the meeting. The board of education will comply with this requirement starting with the Aug. 16, 5 p.m. Work Session, which will include an opportunity for public comment about the budget. Notifications will now be available on The Durango Herald’s online and print Public Notices for all meetings regarding the district budget. Community members may also continue to find information on the district’s website, social media channels and weekly digital newsletters.
