Hello all,
I know this information will not affect everyone, however, I wanted everyone to be in the information loop. It looks like the heat index values will be around 110 on both Monday and Tuesday. In an effort to help our families as they plan for the week, we are making the following announcement:
Due to the forecast of an excessive heat/heat index, both Shannon and Carpenter Elementary schools will be released at Noon on Monday and Tuesday this week. The Middle School and the High School will continue as normal and dismiss at 3:15pm. We are asking elementary parents to pick up their students at Noon at their school building on both Monday and Tuesday. For students that are not picked up at Noon, we will find an air-conditioned place until a parent arrives, the buses arrive at 3:15pm, or when Panther Academy opens at 3:15pm.
We have a regularly scheduled 1pm dismissal on Wednesday and we will make a decision about Thursday and Friday later this week.
Please remember to send a water bottle with your student to help them stay hydrated on these very, very hot days.
Thank you
Dr. Brian Jaeger
Superintendent
