UPCOMING EVENTS FEBRUARY

At their work session on Tuesday, Feb. 7, School Board members voted unanimously to restore six of the nine instructional days lost to inclement weather. April 14 will now be a school day for all students, and June 19-23 will be school days for students in grades K-11. Though considered as a way to make up an additional 1.5 days, late start/early release Wednesdays will not be eliminated.
