We had a great day welcoming our new staff on Monday! We spent time together defining what Pioneering Pathways for Every Student means at Okoboji Schools and creating a vision of what each of them can do to help move our district forward! We couldn't be more excited for the 2023-2024 school year!
Hello Pioneer Family,
The Okoboji school board will honor our students, staff, parents, and community members with two newly created programs this year. The Okoboji School Board recognizes that it takes a community to Pioneer our youth. Through two programs, we want to hear from you about those exceptional individuals that stand out. Please take a moment to honor those that go above and beyond! Below is the Board Salute and Pioneer Student Recognition Programs link.

We are pleased to announce an exciting development regarding our student instructional fees. Effective immediately, we have decided to reduce instructional fees by an impressive 50%!
This will reduce the financial burden on our families. We can do this by restructuring our Instructional Support Levy funding. Please see the attached memo for more information, and if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us!
Okoboji recently launched our new website and communications app, Okoboji CSD, which can be downloaded via the Apple App Store or Google’s Play Store. Search Okoboji CSD!
The primary focus of our new website is to reach out to new families to highlight all the schools’ features, news, events, and marketing. In contrast, the Okoboji CSD app is a communication tool for our parents and students. This app will highlight events, enable one-on-one communications, access documents, receive alert notifications, classroom events, and much more.
Unfortunately, the Infinite Campus app does not integrate with the Okoboji CSD app. Therefore, you must make sure you download the Infinite Campus app in addition to the Okoboji CSD app.
The Okoboji CSD app is designed for communications, whereas the Infinite Campus app is intended for official school functions. A place to view current grades, schedules, pay for lunch and school fees, and report absences starting this school year.
You can find the Infinite Campus app in both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, search Infinite Campus; there is an app for students and one for parents.
Thank you for supporting the Okoboji school district!
We are loving our new app! Access documents, news
updates, and even emergency notifications, right from your
pocket.

The school district hired RSP & Associates last spring to conduct another enrollment forecast, building capacity, and potential development so the district can continue to plan for the future. RSP has completed its analysis, and the findings were not focused on supporting or contradicting any past internal or external students. The analysis is based on data, data, and more data.
