We will be having school at regular time tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing everybody, bright and early!!
With a forecasted actual low of -6° tomorrow morning we will be canceling. It looks like smooth sailing after tomorrow!! If anybody is without electric or needs a place to warm up, we will have several staff members here tomorrow to make sure you have a place to go.
We will be canceling school on Tuesday, January 21st due to extremely cold morning temperatures. It probably goes without need for explanation, but with windchill and temperature values as low as this, any significant delay in a bus pick up or a bus getting hung up in a snowy turn around
and not being able to contact the kids waiting outside is a major concern.
Tomorrow will be regular time for school. We will be running the same roads as we did today. Meeting times will be the same except for two hours earlier.
This message is for Western CTC students! Western CTC students will be dismissed to come to the high school for the Pep Rally tomorrow at 1:15PM. Pep Rally starts at 2:00PM. We will have a bus there to get the bus riders at 1:15PM as well to bus them to the Pep Rally. If you have any questions call the high school.
Last message. I promise. Unless it snows tonight. We will not be running Hackelshin, The Township Road part of Leeth Creek, Viar Road, Beekman Ridge, Woods Rd, Davis Road, and Green Ridge past the fire tower. The bus meeting times will be the same as today for those roads.
I'm going to do something that I have never done before, but I feel like this is a situation where I can justify it. We are going to be on a two hour delay tomorrow. This situation is a little different because of the conditions of driveways and the fact that some parents are not able to get down to the end of the road to wait on the bus with their kids. I want you to use your judgment as a parent and if you feel like it is too cold for your child to stand out and wait for the bus in the morning then you can send a note in with them on Thursday and they will be excused. We will only be able to excuse them if you send in a note stating that they were not there because of the cold temperatures. I don't want to cancel tomorrow because we have a lot of kids that need to be in school tomorrow and I don't want to take away that opportunity. Tomorrow will be a judgment call for you as a parent on whether or not you send your child. Again, in order for the absence to be excuse you need to send in a note with them when they return to school.
If you were scheduled for an attendance meeting tomorrow morning at 9 AM at the high school, it is being rescheduled due to the 2 hour delay. The letter's that you received do state this, but we wanted to send out a reminder just in case. We will have someone contact you with a new meeting date. Thank you.
We will have our LAST two hour delay tomorrow!! The forecasted low is 1 degree tomorrow morning. I apologize for the inconvenience. We will have staff here at normal time in the morning for anyone who needs to drop their students off at regular time.
Bus 15 is running 15 minutes late. Please let your kids know that they can wait 15 minutes to go outside.
Reminder: Our annual College Credit Plus information meeting will be this evening at 6:00 pm in room 101. Please enter at the front High school entrance. This meeting is important for students in grades 6-11 who are interested in earning college credit next school year. Thank you!

I will send out the meeting times for the ends of the roads we are running later this evening once I get a complete list rather than sending out a bunch of individual messages
We will be operating on a two hour delay for tomorrow in order to give our student drivers and our bus drivers daylight just in case of re-freezing and also for the bus turnarounds. We will not pick up or drop off on the following roads tomorrow. Red Bridge, McCoy, Beekman Ridge, Tater Knob, Stewart Hollow, Fields Hollow, Davis Rd, Turner Rd, Hackelshin, Owens Rd, Viar Rd. There could be a couple of additions to this list. I know this is an inconvenience, but we can't take a chance on getting a driver stuck in a turnaround tomorrow. These are the roads the drivers wanted to give an extra day. We will check all these tomorrow and hopefully we'll be able to run on Tuesday. If you need to know the time to meet the bus at the end of these roads, text me at 740-222-311 and I will get you a time. Thank you.
For grades 6-11
COLLEGE CREDIT PLUS: Required Annual Meeting - If your son or daughter would be interested in earning college credit next year during the 2025-26 school year, please attend the CCP Informational meeting on January 14, 2025 at 6:00 pm in room 101.
Here is the Homecoming Picture form. This is also available in the hallway by the high school office and Jamie will have plenty on the day of as well. Pictures are from 6:00PM- 7:00PM in the High School Gym on January 18th.
Here are the dress up themes for Homecoming week! This is for Junior High and High School students!
Good afternoon my wonderful primary/elementary staff.
Here's some information concerning the PD/work day tomorrow.
1. You can wear jeans or comfy clothes.
2. Lunch will NOT be provided. Sorry. Please bring something to eat or maybe you want to be adventurous and eat the left over snacks still in your room from the Christmas party.
3. We will meet in the elementary cafeteria at 8:05 for a short meeting. I can't wait to see you all....well most of you all. LOL Just kidding.
I had fully planned to have kids come tomorrow until I saw the snow is forecasted to start at 2pm tomorrow. Anything that falls will stick. The highways and county roads are in pretty good shape and the guys have worked all week on the parking lot so that really isn't an issue. If it doesn't snow I'll fully admit it was a mistake to not have school. If we were here and it snows before we get home we're in a full-blown mess.
The staff will be here. If any students need to come in to get warmed up or for a meal that is perfectly fine. We've been out way too long. I just need to know who will be coming so we can prepare the food. Parents will need to stay with your kids and we'll make sure you get something to eat, also. I apologize for the inconvenience. This is one of the tough calls where student safety becomes the determining factor. Again, if we have kids or families who need a meal we will be here.
