Winter Weather Alert
We appreciate our families being so responsive and understanding as we navigate winter weather, poor road conditions, and severely low temperatures. We try our best to make fair and safe decisions about school closures and late starts. It looks like we are due for another week filled with bitter temperatures and more snow. Please keep an eye out for weather alerts via email, text, and social media as we will notify the community of any changes as soon as we are able to make the appropriate call.
