Early notice for tomorrow! 💜

This is an important message for tomorrow, Friday, February 20th, as we want to provide families with advanced notice of a two-hour delayed start due to expected weather and road conditions.

Tomorrow, classes will begin two hours later, and winter bus stops will be in effect. All morning half-day early childhood programs will be canceled. If conditions change, and the cancellation of all schools is necessary, we will provide that information tomorrow morning. If you do not hear from us in the morning, the two-hour delay will remain.
