Girls HS Basketball game Cancelled for tonight against Tri-County
They will practice after school
We are planning to be in session on Tuesday, January 27.
Due to snow covered areas around the school, we ask everyone to please allow extra time for travel and use additional caution when arriving at school.
Elementary drop-off:
Elementary families should consider approaching from William to Piatt Street and dropping off students in front of the elementary building so students do not need to cross the street to access the sidewalk.
Parking reminders:
With parking areas still snow covered, please be mindful when parking. It is very helpful to pull next to cars that are already parked and fall in line, rather than parking in open areas wherever space appears available. This will help us use space more efficiently.
