We are pleased to inform you that students will return to school on Thursday, October 3rd, following the recent inclement weather days.
Thank you to our parents and community for your patience and support during this time. We look forward to having our students back in our schools to resume instruction and continue working toward increased achievement for the school year.
Our transportation team is working to develop new bus stops for our students who live off of dirt roads that have been washed out and are not passable. Please be patient with our transportation team as they work to navigate continued road closures.
