Jesse Ulrich became superintendent in 2018 when all members of the FDCSD school board voted to hire him.[4]
In 2018 the district's elementary school boundaries were modified.[5] That year it also placed an enrollment cap in its elementary schools. Butler and Duncombe elementaries however would have eight extra spaces for new students who move into their attendance zones, while Cooper and Feelhaver each have four.[6]
