Shepherd High School Parent Update
Good Things
As a Capturing Kids Heart's school we start each class with a few minutes to share Good Things." (See the Launch at the end of this update.) My Good Thing this week is that I got to spend the weekend in the UP with my parents. The added bonus was that I got to be there for my Mom's birthday!
Final Forms
As we prepare for the 25-26 school year, we want to inform families that Shepherd Public Schools will now implement 3-hour delays in place of 2-hour delays when appropriate.
Here’s how a 3-hour delay will work:
School Doors Open: 10:40 AM
Power Announcement Sent: 5:30 AM
If Conditions Worsen, School Would Be Canceled by: 8:00 AM
Please note:
Sub-varsity athletic events will be canceled on school closing days unless they are part of a combination game with a varsity team. We will begin making decisions about practices, games, and other school activities at 12:00 pm.
We appreciate your flexibility as we prioritize student and staff safety while maximizing learning time.
