We have not received any information of school cancellation at this time. So as of now, school will be in session as normal tomorrow. Due to cold temperatures tomorrow (1/26) and Tuesday (1/27), we will allow non-uniform winter clothing including sweatshirts, jackets, sweatpants, beanie hats, and gloves so that our students may stay warm. Hoodies will also be acceptable but students will be asked to remove the hood from their heads in the building. Remember inside the building will be warm so students will want to dress in layers.
If we have any additional information or updates, we will post an update here, on the school app and on social media.
