Have a wonderful and restful weekend!
On Friday, October 2, our district will participate in our annual required Emergency Early Dismissal Drill.
All students will be dismissed 15 minutes earlier than their regularly scheduled dismissal time.
This annual drill is a required test of our emergency communication systems and safety protocols to ensure our schools and families are prepared in the event of an unscheduled early dismissal.
Important Details for October 2 :
* All schools will release students 15 minutes early. Please adjust your schedule or transportation arrangements accordingly.
*All elementary after-school programs are cancelled for the afternoon.
* All middle and high school sporting events and athletic practices will proceed as scheduled.
If you have any questions regarding dismissal procedures for your child, please contact your school’s main office.
