Feedback Requested — Elementary Boundaries

Urbandale Community School District is seeking community feedback as we embark on a process to create new elementary school attendance boundaries for the 2023-24 school year, which will coincide with the opening of our second new elementary school. On May 23, the school board will continue its work with RSP to define the priorities that the boundary committee will use in creating a recommendation for these changes. Please complete the following survey to give your input on this process. Results will be shared with the school board and with the boundary committee members. The survey should be completed by noon on May 11.

This will not be the only opportunity the public will have to provide feedback to the school district. There will be an opportunity in July to view boundary sketches and give feedback regarding the options being considered. More information will be provided closer to the events.

Free Meals for All Students Ends With the 2021-2022 School Year

When the 2021-2022 school year ends, so do free meals for every student.


While the federal government funded a program that allowed all students access to free meals during the COVID-19 pandemic, Congress recently declined to continue funding this program. This means all families will need to carry a positive balance in their children’s school meal accounts when school begins next fall.


If your student qualifies for free or reduced meals, they can still receive them next year, click HERE for more information about how to make that happen.


To learn more about applying for free or reduced meals, please visit the Nutrition Services website.


For assistance in completing the application or for questions, please contact the Nutrition Department at 515-457-6911.


The Urbandale Community School District is an equal opportunity provider.

Visitors

Just a few reminders as we welcome visitors back into the building.

  • As the COVID-19 vaccine is currently approved for individuals 5 years of age and older, visitors are permitted for Kindergarten through 12th grades. This means that students, staff, families, and visitors in compliance with school visitor policies and Principal approval are allowed inside our elementary (K-5), middle, and high school buildings.
  • Visitors are not permitted during lunch for Kindergarten through 8th grades.
  • Building Principals may limit the number of adult visitors in a classroom, or in an area of the building, at any given time.

All visitors must check into the main office to sign in and to be escorted to the classroom. Please call the main office if you have any questions.
