School will be canceled on Tuesday, February 2 due to ice and snow covered roads.
The varsity girls game has been canceled for this evening.
No school for Monday, February 1 due to snow and ice on roadways
We are going to start out tomorrow on a two hour delay. We are still under a level one right now. The big issue is the temperature is forecasted to be 30 or 31 in the morning with snow forecasted all night. Probably won’t amount to much snow but the temperature is the issue. Don’t anticipate any issue after the first thing in the morning but I would rather not find out at 7:15 that we have ice. Thanks
