Meet at the same time Jimmy will not run his part of Leeth Creek Brandis will not run Beekman Ridge Marvin will not run Woods Road I know we have kids who have not been to school for weeks. If we don't run your road and you want your child to come to school tomorrow message me in the morning by 7:00 and I'll make sure we bring the van out to get them. If they don't come, it will not be counted against him, but any students who want to come that don't have bus service I will make sure we get them there tomorrow. You just have to contact me in the morning and I will get it figured out.

Due to the 2 hour delay tomorrow, February 9th, the Junior High Spelling Bee will now be Tuesday, February 10th at 9:00AM.

We will be operating on a two hour delay tomorrow. Because of the snow this morning every back road is covered. County roads are in pretty good shape but still could use some daylight. I ran around all afternoon checking roads and there are still icy places but for the most part they're in pretty good shape so we will be able to go tomorrow, but we will be on two hour delay. I will put out a message later this evening with all the roads that we will not be running tomorrow. That list will likely be the same as we've been doing for the past couple of weeks. It looks like we have almost survived the worst winter in 49 years. I'm hoping this is the last time I'm gonna have to call about a weather situation.

Freshmen, JV, and Varsity Boys Basketball @ Wheelersburg has been moved to Monday, 2/16 starting at 5:00.

Western youth league games for this evening are cancelled.

With the 2 hour delay tomorrow, the Junior High Spelling Bee will now be Monday, February 9th at 9:00AM in the High School Gym.

We're going to start out tomorrow on a two hour delay. We are on a winter weather advisory for tomorrow during the school day with the forecast of 1 to 3 inches of snow. We will have a delay and hopefully tomorrow morning we'll find out that the weatherman was wrong and we won't have anything coming. If we have to cancel, I will make the call by seven in the morning so you'll be able to make plans.

Eastern Boys Basketball Game is now 2/21 start time 5:00. I left out Eastern on previous post.

Freshmen, JV and Varsity Boys Basketball game at Eastern has been rescheduled for Saturday, 2/21. Game time 5:00.

Due to the winter weather advisory for tomorrow it's likely that the high school boys game will be cancelled. Oak Hill contacted us and wants to play the high school boys game tonight in conjunction with the HS girls game. The varsity girls will play first starting at 5. The JV boys will follow the girls and the varsity boys will play following the JV boys. The boys bus will leave at 4:15. We know this is an inconvenience but there are very few dates, if any, that we could make up this game before tournaments. Because it's a league game we don't have a choice but to make it up before we make up non-league games and tonight will ensure that we get the game in. The ADs just got this together a few minutes ago. We know it's short notice. Players and cheerleaders have been notified.

Tara's bus just left. First pick up in about 13 minutes, which would be about 933.

Thursday morning pick up times are the same as Monday for the roads. We are not running. David - same as Monday. Not running Davis or Turner. Meeting times the same as Monday. Tara is not running New Fain Marvin is not running Woods Road Brandis is not running Beekman Road Steve will not pick up on Wallace Fork Donna will run her entire route Tonya will not pick up Viar Jimmy will not pick up on the township end of Leeth Creek Teresa will be running her entire route If there are any questions or if I forgot anything, please feel free to let me know at 740-222-8311. Best not to message through Facebook because I may not get it.

Freshmen, JV, and Varsity Bball game tonight at Eastern has been canceled. Will post make up date as soon as we know.

As much as I hate to do it, we're going to go ahead and cancel for tomorrow. If you live on 124 it probably looks pretty good. Side roads are really bad. County roads have a lot of slick spots right now and will get worse overnight as the temperature drops. Going to be in the 40s next week so hopefully we get back to sometime of normal. I know some people are still without water so just a reminder that the community center will be open tomorrow if anybody needs anything.
