On Thursday, April 29 we were excited to have more than 50 people come together for our first Title IX Advisory Council meeting. Unfortunately, we were "Google bombed" by outside people that were disruptive with loud music, profanities, nudity and weapons. We had to immediately ask the community who had joined, to log off, and look for a follow up to this meeting for a chance to reschedule with a more secure link.

In March, dozens of district partners and community sustainability stakeholders joined Boulder Valley School District staff to launch our community engagement work to update the district’s Sustainability Management System (SMS). This effort is the third update of the plan that was originally published in 2009 and updated in 2015.
