Doing a final check to see which roads are still without power. If your road or part of your road is still without power, please respond to this post on Facebook and I will get back with everyone quickly about a decision regarding school tomorrow. Staff members please text me to let me know the status of your electric.
I know we are currently dealing with a high number of power outages in our area. I'm tying to figure out a plan for tomorrow and let you know that I understand many of you are without power and have been for a few days. I will get in touch with everyone later this afternoon about what we're going to do tomorrow for sure. I've been seeing Facebook posts regarding the outage areas but if your road is without power, please let me know by replying to this Facebook post and also put the projected time. I will be in contact with AEP and South Central to find out if they expect to have most power restored earlier than projected. I will be in touch later this afternoon/early evening with tomorrow's plan.
The PTO will be hosting a Scholastic Book Fair during the week of March 6-10. Students in grades K-6 will go to the book fair during their scheduled music time. Preschool students will visit the book fair on Monday, March 6. Thank you!
We were unable to get a route covered this evening so we will be splitting Donna's bus like we sometimes do with the Lapperel kids riding Bus 1, the Grassyfork kids riding Bus 5 and the 124 kids ridingBus 7. After Penny drops off her kids, she will come back to get students who ride the bus 19. They will be arriving home approximately 30 minutes later than normal.
Congratulations to Vicki Triplett for being named CORAS Outstanding Middle School Educator at Western 4-6!! Very well deserved!!!
We will be live-streaming the game using Piketon's HUDL feed. It will work just like ours. I will post a link as soon as I get it.
It looks like they will be closing 124 below Idaho before long so we are going to conclude the parent teacher conference at 7 PM this evening in order to give staff members time to go alternative routes home if necessary.
Students who ride Bus #14 and live beyond 4732 Morgans Ford Rd, the bus will be a little later due to the electric company replacing lines caused by a tree that had fallen.
Just a reminder that Thursday (tomorrow) is a staff PD 1/2 day with P/T conferences starting at 1pm until 8pm. Students will not report to school tomorrow. We're looking forward to lots of parents at the P/T conferences tomorrow evening.
Student Run Credit Union will be open on Wednesday, February 15th. Bring your money to deposit-no amount is too small. If you would like to open an account, it's not too late. Call the office for a form to complete.
The bus who's picking up Debbie Scarbrough's kids just left. First pick up should be right around 8 o'clock.
Just received a call from Debbie Scarbrough and she is sick this morning and will not be able to drive and we have another driver out so we don't have an available sub. We will have to double route for Debbie this morning so as soon as the first bus pulls into school this morning, we will send it out to pick up her students. I will send a message out with an approximate time. Thanks.

We have a few reports of trees down on some of our county roads so we have a couple of buses running the routes backwards in order to give the county time with the trees cleaned up so if your kids are a little later than normal or even a few minutes earlier, it's because we are trying to avoid the trees and give the county time to get them cleaned up.
February 16 was scheduled to be an early release day for students with the P/T conferences to follow from 1-8. We are still having the P/T conferences as scheduled but 2/16 will be a PD day for staff so students will not report that day.
Bus five has a mechanical issue and we are sending another bus to pick up her students so students who ride bus five will probably be getting home around 15 to 20 minutes later than normal but they are on their way. Penny May will be there in just a few minutes to switch the kids over to her bus. Thanks.
Penny May’s bus is running about 30 minutes late this morning. We just received the notification.
