Moulton Family,

I wanted to update you all a little bit about what is happening in the near future. (Next school year)

Moulton Elementary will be building a whole new building/school. In our new school building we will be focused on the Arts in as many creative ways as possible. While the district is building our new building, we will be transporting all students to a satelite campus [The Kurtz building]. We will also have other transportation for people that do not have rides for other various meetings or emergencies.

We will also start having meetings to answer any questions you may have as we get ready for a brand new amazing building. Meeting days and time will be announced soon.

Have a wonderful day!

Join us for a special event! Hear how the Reimagining Plan and proposed $265 million bond—on the ballot this November—could transform Moulton Elementary.

If the bond passes, the current building would come down and a new, modern school would be built on site to better serve students, families, and neighbors as a Pre-K-8th grade Performing & Visual Arts signature school.

Principal Eddie McCulley will lead a tour of the building and discuss why these changes are needed.
All are welcome—wear your tennis shoes and come be part of the conversation about Moulton’s future!
