Announcements

Higley Unified School District is in the process of interviewing applicants for the Superintendent position. A Public Forum with the selected candidates will be held on February 26, 2025 at 6 PM and will be located in HUSD's Board Room - 2935 S Recker Rd, Gilbert, AZ 85295.

For more information about the position and the search process, please visit HUSD Superintendent Search.

As many of you know, the Higley School District's Maintenance & Operations Override did not pass in the November 2024 election, resulting in a $5.1 million funding reduction for the 2025-2026 school year. An additional $5 million in cuts may be needed for 2026-27. These funds have traditionally supported key programs, resources, and staff.

We need input from district employees, parents, and the community to prioritize programs and services for 2026-27. Please complete the HUSD Budget Survey to share your feedback. Your recommendations will be invaluable as we make these difficult decisions should a continuation of the Maintenance & Operations Override not be approved during the 2025-2026 school year.

Take the Survey

Please note the survey will close on Monday, February 24th at 9 AM.

Join us for a Community Town Hall on Wednesday, February 19 at 5 PM in the HUSD Board Room to discuss these challenges. Visit our M&O Override page for more information.
