Good morning, We want to remind everyone that we have our school tours today and tomorrow! Hope to see you there.
Dear Ojai Unified Staff and Families,
As you are all aware, there is a significant rainstorm hitting California Saturday through Tuesday. District staff are monitoring the storm closely and as of today it appears that the heaviest rain will be between noon on Sunday through about 9PM. There is continued rain expected Monday, however, the models are predicting lighter rain on Monday.
We have staff assigned to monitor schools on Sunday to prevent flooding and damage. We will also monitor updates about road closures through the VC Alert System. If there are no major road closures Monday morning, we have staff ready to drive the roads starting at 5AM to evaluate the conditions.
If there is damage, unsafe conditions or significant road closures that would necessitate closing schools, we will send a ParentSquare message out to families by 6:30AM on Monday morning. However, for now, we plan to have schools open on Monday.
Sincerely,
Dr. Knox

Dear Ojai Unified Staff, Families and Community,
I enjoyed visiting the many awards ceremonies, celebrations, promotions and graduations during the last two weeks of school. The moments were beautiful, entertaining, and emotional. I heard many student-led speeches that were thought-provoking and inspirational and I saw performances that showcased the great talent so many of our students have developed during their growing years. I am truly in awe of our students, staff, teachers and families who have supported our students along the way to be their best selves, thrive in our schools and to successfully make it to these important milestones they will remember forever. This was especially significant given the challenging events that Ojai Unified has faced this year.
I am grateful for the students, staff, teachers, administrators, parents and community members who have contributed to help make our transitions to our new configurations successful. The District has just completed the majority of the physical classroom moves. Our staff, site administrators and volunteers did an excellent job of packing and labeling boxes. This allowed the movers to stay on schedule. I want to personally thank those who helped pack rooms; I know it was a monumental task.
Although the physical moves are mostly complete, we know there is far more work to be done to ensure our school merges result in strong positive school cultures where students are thriving. District and site leadership will maintain a continued commitment and effort throughout the 2023-2024 school year and beyond to ensure we accomplish this. We look forward to doing this work together with our staff, students, families and community partners.
In addition to ensuring the smooth transition of our schools, one important next step for our District is to look at the vacant properties as well as vacant spaces on campuses to decide and consider the best District uses. District staff and the Governing Board are seeking preliminary input from our staff, families and community members. This input will help inform the Board in their next steps and actions in regard to District property uses. In order to collect input from community partners, we are sending out a survey which you can find the link here https://forms.gle/2ci41SRHFuSfwUKf9 and as well we are holding in-person community input meetings at the District Office Boardroom, 414 E Ojai Avenue, on the following dates and times:
Tuesday, July 11, 2023 8:30AM
Wednesday, July 12, 2023 at 5:30PM
Wednesday, July 19, 2023 at 8:30AM
Wednesday, July 19, 2023 at 5:00PM
We hope you are enjoying the early days of summer and wish you all a wonderful 4th of July tomorrow. We look forward to hearing from you about District property uses through the survey and/or in-person forums.
Sincerely,
Dr. Sherrill Knox, Interim Superintendent
