GIVE ME A 👍🏻 when you read this !!

Hi everyone! Sorry for the late call on weather, but we wanted to wait to watch the forecast for tomorrow before we made a decision on tomorrow’s classes.
For those that don’t know - High school has their own personal meteorologist in teacher, Austin Caviness! After talking with him, we have decided to cancel tomorrow’s co-op activities. There is a burst of activity coming tonight that could impact traveling in the morning, especially for our many families in Wilkes and Alleghany areas. Then there is another round of snow coming during co-op hours that could impact travel back home. With these events possibly affecting travel twice we are erring on the side of caution and canceling events. Teachers will post assignments on Google Classroom by tomorrow.
PLEASE HAVE YOUR CHILD CHECK GOOGLE CLASSROOM tomorrow.

For Spirit Month, you can choose to dress up next week for either Crazy Day or Favorite Character Day.

Stay safe and warm!

⭐️BREAKING NEW YEAR NEWS⭐️
GroundBreakers will be rejoining next year w Connections Co-Op.
While I have truly loved starting our Co-Op it is a bit overwhelming for me to run it all w my job at our church and homeschooling my other 2.
Melissa Gephardt will be running Connections and has a LOT of awesome and exciting new things to offer at the new location INCLUDING our middle school co-op, elementary classes, field trips, and even options for us moms!😃
I am excited to continue to teach some of our middle school classes, but am happy to pass on the admin side of things. Having your kiddos each week has reminded me why I went to school to be a teacher. It has brought me so much joy to spend time with them each week! ❤️
Be looking in Feb for schedules, times, details and more of what next year holds! 🤗
