Good morning, JCN. Needless to say, I ‘m NOT a weatherman. I’ve been on roads on our northern in for the last hour. Roads and parking areas are beginning to turn white. With the significant winds, I am concerned regarding visibility with buses this morning and throughout the day. That all being said, I am cancelling school today. School and activities are cancelled for today, Friday, January 15. Please remember Monday is a holiday so we will see students back on Tuesday. Have a wonderful weekend.
I’m calling to notify you we have one additional case of COVID at the elementary/middle school. After working with the health department, we have no school exposures.
We appreciate your diligence in monitoring for symptoms and working to keep others from exposure. Keep up the good work.

I want to welcome you all back to second semester.
We returned with three positive cases from the holidays. All were connected and at the EMS. We have a small number of students home awaiting test results and/or on quarantine. None of these situations have had any exposure at school since students have been home so we are hoping our positivity rate stays low. Remember, you can see our positivity rate under "current covid info" on our website or app. Numbers are updated daily.
Keep up the good work of watching for symptoms and being proactive in keeping students home. We appreciate your work in helping keep schools open for business.
I hope your 2021 has started out well.
REMINDER: No Late Start tomorrow, Wednesday, Jan. 6th. Will be normal school day.
