Family Letter – August 13, 2024

Dear Families,

I hope this letter finds you and your family safe and well I am writing to inform you of an important change regarding the start of our school year due to the recent tornadoes that have impacted our community we have made the decision to delay the first day of school.

The new first day of school will now be August 20th instead of the originally planned date of August 15th. This decision was not made lightly but it is essential to ensure that we can provide the safest and most conducive learning environment for our students.

The severe weather caused significant disruptions including power outages that affected our ability to complete necessary preparations specifically we are prioritizing building construction, teacher development and transportation.

Our primary concern is always the safety and well-being of our students, and we are committed to providing them with the best possible environment for their education we appreciate your understanding and support as we take the necessary steps to ensure everything is in place for a successful school year.

Please mark your calendars for the new start date and feel free to reach out to the school office with any questions or concerns, we will continue to keep you updated on any further developments.

Thank you for your continued partnership and we look forward to welcoming your children back to school on August 20th.

Warm regards

Janet McDowell
