Provo City School District Superintendent Wendy Dau issued a community update on Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2026, addressing several district topics. The announcement included details regarding scheduled board meetings and upcoming district-wide policy reviews.
The Provo City School District Board is scheduled to hold a study session at 4:00 p.m. in Boardroom 1 and a business meeting at 6:00 p.m. in the Professional Development Center on Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2026. The board will consider starting a planning and public input process regarding the potential relocation of some self-contained classrooms to additional neighborhood schools to create a more regional model. This vote is intended to start the process rather than approve final changes to service locations. Additionally, the board will review the district report card data, progress on the strategic plan, and the 2027–2028 early open enrollment recommendations.
The board is also scheduled to finalize an early literacy policy involving individualized reading plans and retention requirements for students not on grade level by third grade. During the meeting, officials will also certify election results selecting the Timpview PTSA as the official parent organization for Timpview High School. In other district news, leadership and board members are traveling to visit a Spanish and Portuguese Dual Language Immersion magnet school in the Logan School District, with findings to be shared at a Nov. 10 Board study session.
Superintendent Dau highlighted recent school visits, including time spent with students at Amelia Earhart Elementary practicing numbers, writing informational paragraphs about spiders, and building vocabulary through multisyllabic routines. The update also noted athletic achievements, including a state championship for the Timpview boys golf team and several Provo Bulldogs and Timpview Thunderbirds sports programs moving into state playoffs.
The district reminded residents that it is currently voting season and emphasized that ballots are due next Tuesday.
