Returning to Education at SCSD#2 Schools
The Sheridan County School District is gearing up for the 2025-2026 academic year, with a number of changes and updates in store. One of the most significant changes is the appointment of a new principal at Meadowlark Elementary School.
Isaac VanDyke, a former math teacher at Sheridan High School, will be taking over the helm at Meadowlark. VanDyke brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to his new role, having spent several years in the educational sector.
In addition to the new principal, the quality of teachers hired for the upcoming school year is high. However, the number of teachers hired is less than in previous years, reflecting a reduction in the applicant pool this year.
The enrollment for kindergartners in the 2025-2026 school year is larger than in the past couple of years, with the new housing units for the school district all being fully occupied. The exact enrollment numbers for the school year are yet to be confirmed, with the official numbers expected to be announced in early September.
Superintendent Scott Stults extends a warm welcome to students, families, and staff for the 2025-2026 school year. He notes that every new school year is unique, and this one is no exception. Stults encourages everyone to embrace the changes and look forward to a successful and productive year.
As for Sheridan Junior High School, Jennifer Murphy has been appointed as the new assistant principal. The school district does not have any publicly available details about expected enrollment or staff changes for the 2025-2026 school year. To obtain this information, interested parties are advised to check the Sheridan County School District's official website or contact their administrative office directly. Alternatively, they can review recent local school board meeting minutes or public announcements from Sheridan County during mid-2025, when many districts finalise staffing and enrollment forecasts for the upcoming school year.
The school year for Sheridan County School District #2 begins in August 2025. With the new principal, new teachers, and growing enrollment, the district is set for an exciting and promising academic year.
