The weather is moving faster than expected, so we are going to move our dismissal up one hour to 1:00 p.m. All students will be dismissed at 1:00. Also, we are not sending students to Rend Lake today. Additionally, there will be no after school program and all PM activities are cancelled.
With the impending weather tomorrow, we will dismiss at 2:00 p.m. to stay ahead of the ice. The rest of the week doesn't look promising, so it would be best to line up child care if necessary. However, we will assess any potential cancellation for Thursday and Friday one day at a time.
In case you haven't heard, our Trojans are going to state. In order to show our support, we are having Spirit Week! Please see the attached flyer!

If you need to make arrangements for your students please call the school at 732-8242. We will have the after school program today as normal.
