🚨 Weather Update 🚨
Despite the hard work of our district crews and city officials, some of our parking lots, sidewalks, and many side streets remain unsafe for students and staff to return. Out of an abundance of caution, there will be no school tomorrow, January 8th. This extra time will allow road conditions to continue improving and give crews the opportunity to ensure the areas around our facilities are safe for everyone.
Thank you for your understanding as we prioritize safety. Stay safe and warm, BRAVES!
