## Resource

Wells Springs Unified is on edge as it races to fill a critical pre-K teaching vacancy before July—or risk reconfiguring its entire program. With no qualified candidates in sight, licensing hurdles, and no room to expand, the district is weighing drastic options like splitting sessions, while also battling heating issues and renovating a basement bathroom for backup space. Parents and staff are anxious as the board prepares to potentially call a special meeting to decide the program’s future, all while juggling broader district challenges like facility upgrades and leadership vacancies.
