Hello, we have 2 important announcements:
1- We will have a "snow day make-up" on Monday February 21st to cover last Friday's snow day. This make-up day will be a virtual distance learning day. Students will not report to school, but will be expected to log on to their virtual classroom and complete their assigned work. Full details will be sent out by their teachers prior to this date.
2- We will be having our BOOK FAIR next week Feb. 14-17. Students will be given opportunities to purchase books and other items each day. On Tuesday evening, Feb. 15, we will have a "Parent Night" during our P-T Conferences. From 3:10 pm-6:00 pm parents and their children can come to the book fair and purchase books together. We hope you will join us!!

We will be hosting a celebration “send-off” for our 7/8 girls basketball team tomorrow at 1:45. We welcome anyone/everyone to come out and wish them well as we send them on their way to STATE! It’s always a great day to be a Cardinal!!

Congratulations to our 7/8 girls basketball team! They are the ORES North Area CHAMPIONS and are headed to the State Tournament!!
GO CARDINALS!

SNOW DAY!! NO SCHOOL Friday 2/4/22. Enjoy the snow, stay safe and warm.

Thursday (Feb. 3) will be another Virtual Learning day. Please make sure your child follows the instructions sent home, connects with their teacher and completes assigned work. If the predicted weather arrives and road conditions remain hazardous, Friday (Feb.4) will be a regular snow day. An update will follow by tomorrow to confirm Friday's decision. Please stay warm and safe! Thank you.

Due to the forecasted incoming weather, we have decided to err on the side of caution & transition to Virtual Learning for tomorrow, Wednesday. If conditions are still bad for Thursday we will do a virtual learning that day as well. If conditions remain for Friday, it will be a true snow day, no school. I will follow up with an updated notification tomorrow to confirm our definitive plans for those two days. I hope you stay warm and safe and are able enjoy the snow!
