A message from Superintendent Bobby Howard
Community, I would like to clear up the fact that the board did not fire Josh Vialpando, but instead they voted to non-renew his contract as assistant Principal for the 2026-2027 school year. He is still employed with the district, but will need to take a different role as teacher and coach.

/S/ Mr. Howard

A message from Superintendent Bobby Howard
WJSHS Community, Today at 10AM several students decided to walk out of school in protest of a board decision. The students were warned three times this morning to not leave campus. Students went to the board office to protest. Mr. Howard went to the board office to have the students return. Most of the students returned to school or were picked up by parents. Huerfano School District RE-1 supports the right to free speech. Please work with your child to understand how to properly exercise their free speech. Thank you for your understand and support in this matter.

/s/ Mr. Howard
