As we continue through cold and snowy conditions this year, please remember that every family and student has a slightly different situation. If you believe it is unsafe or unreasonable for your child to attend school on a given day due to your specific situation and weather conditions, please contact the school to report the absence. Our first concern as a community is the safety of our children, and it is possible that school is in session when a particular family is not in the position for children to attend.
