Clifton Schools Community Survey: Planning for Our Future

In response to program growth and the growing need for classroom space, particularly for Special Education and Preschool programs, the district is looking at many options to address these challenges. Thanks to your support, we successfully opened Maple Valley Middle School in September 2025, which helped reduce crowding in our middle schools. However, we still need to solve space shortages in our elementary schools.

To plan for the future, the Board of Education is looking at ways to use our school buildings more effectively. We are considering ideas like moving 5th grade to middle schools, expanding preschool options into neighborhood elementary schools and adding space for self-contained special education classrooms while keeping a close eye on our budget. 

Before making any final decisions, we need to hear from you! Your opinions will help us prioritize what matters most to our families and school community.

Please take a few minutes to share your thoughts by Friday, November 20, 2026.  We look forward to your input as we work together to provide the best possible learning environments for our OneClifton community.
