Weather Update…Blizzard of 2024

I would like to thank all of the bus drivers and custodians who came out early this morning to clear the snow from our school parking lots.  After taking a drive this afternoon to check on the parking lots, I can say that all looking good and will be ready for school tomorrow.  Steve and I will be accessing the roads one last time at 4am but it is looking highly probable that school will be in session tomorrow so, if that is indeed the case, please allow yourself a few extra minutes for your drive to school tomorrow.  The roads will still be slippery in the morning and there will be some drifting overnight.
