It has been amazing to see our community come together over the past few days to support those impacted by flooding. As it relates to returning to school, we’ve heard a wide range of thoughts and opinions. Some have expressed concerns about returning to school. Others are ready to go back and be with their school families. Like everyone right now we are doing our best to navigate a very challenging situation. There is no perfect answer or solution. With that being said, after careful consideration of all factors, we have decided to close again tomorrow to allow students, staff, and their families more time to address the aftermath of the flooding.

We know that tomorrow and the days ahead will be difficult. Especially for those in our community who have been displaced from their homes or suffered water damage. Please know we are here to help and support any way that we can.
