Thank you for your support in helping your child prepare for testing.
7th Grade Enrichment students joined forces with our Leo Club to collect 2,700 cans of food. Before donating them to a local food pantry, Enrichment students created unique structures that were on display in the Glass Hallway.
I hope you and your families stayed safe and warm during our recent snowstorm.
I'm writing to let you know that, at this time, our schools will be open tomorrow, January 27, on a regular schedule. Our facilities and grounds teams will continue monitoring conditions overnight to ensure everything is safe for arrival.
If weather or road conditions change and a delayed opening becomes necessary, we will communicate that decision to families by 5:30 a.m. tomorrow morning.
Thank you for your continued support and flexibility during winter weather. We look forward to welcoming our students back tomorrow!
