Parents, thank you so much for your flexibility, patience, and understanding as we dealt with the morning's circumstances 🌧️🌧️🌧️. It is so appreciated. Thank you for trusting us with these kids and working with us in their best interest.

Teachers and staff, you all jumped in and did what we needed to do to get kids safely back home. Thank you.

Students who were here from buses, your behavior at the high school while we waited for parents or buses was amazing!

Thanks to district and high school staff for all of their assistance this morning.

It would have been nice to have been in school today, but everyone from students to staff to parents to bus drivers demonstrated how great they are. Thanks everyone!
