Monday is a SNOW DAY!! We hope our fellow Eagles enjoy their day off and make great memories in the snow. Let’s see your favorite moments of the 2026 snow!
Lee County Schools will be fully CLOSED tomorrow, February 2, 2026 for a good old-fashioned snow day.
Please see the note from Dr. Chris Dossenbach.
"Dear families,
Days like today don't come often for us. It is a reminder that learning also happens in moments of joy, wonder and play. So stay warm, be safe and let kids be kids - sled, laugh and soak it all in. School will be back soon enough so go enjoy a good old-fashioned snow day!
Lee County Schools will be closed tomorrow (2/2/2026) for students and staff.
With gratitude,
Chris Dossenbach"
You heard it from Dr. Dossenbach! No school tomorrow! Go have a blast!
Students should hold onto the remote work packets that were sent home on Friday in case they are needed later in the week, but they do not need to complete them for tomorrow! Stay safe & make some great memories!

Stay safe & enjoy the family time Eagle family!
Due to inclement weather and unsafe road conditions, all schools will operate on a remote learning day tomorrow, Monday, January 26, 2026, for all students and staff.
Teachers sent home assignments on Friday in anticipation of possible remote instruction.
Important reminders for families:
• There will be no live/virtual instruction
• Students will have five school days to submit remote learning assignments
• Students are not expected to work for hours at a time or follow a traditional school-day schedule
• Short, manageable work periods, breaks as needed, and time with family are encouraged
State law allows school districts to use up to five remote instruction days per year during inclement weather without requiring days to be made up.
Thank you for your continued support as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff.
Shirts & sweatshirts from our recent order went home with students today. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the PTO by email at [email protected].
Thanks for your support!

Happy birthday Principal Brewer!
Happy Birthday to our Principal Brewer!
I hope you know just how much you mean to all of us. You pour your whole heart and soul into JR Ingram—showing up before anyone else, staying long after the day is done, and loving our students like they’re your own. You always make time to listen, to guide, and to support, and that’s a rare gift.
You’re not just a principal—you’re the example of what leadership, kindness, and dedication should look like. We’re all better because of you, and our students shine brighter thanks to the love and belief you pour into them every day.
Wishing you the happiest birthday. You deserve every bit of celebration.
