Dear Families,
With the forecasted winter weather approaching, we want to ensure everyone stays safe and informed. We are currently monitoring the conditions for Sunday night into Monday.
While school is currently scheduled to open as normal, there is a possibility of a closure. A final decision will be made based on road safety and facility conditions. If school is canceled, information will be sent via phone, email, text, Facebook, and Channel 6 KWQC as early as possible.
Thank you for your patience, understanding and for keeping our students' and staff safety a priority.
