Since we have not had to cancel school for a weather related event so far this year, we do not need to use our snow day scheduled for Monday. Therefore, there is NO SCHOOL on Monday.
The wrestling tournaments in Minot (girls wrestling) and Gettysburg (boys wrestling) for tomorrow have been cancelled. ALSO, we will not be traveling to Carrington (JH tournament) tomorrow due to the weather.
Cold weather is here, and it is looking to stick around for a couple days. Please make sure to send appropriate clothing for your kids. We do not send kids outside for recess if it is below -15 wind chill. Thank you!
