Across the district, students and staff have been working hard to prepare for this Wednesday’s At-Home Blended Learning Day. Please mark your calendars and note that on Wednesday, August 26, students will not be at school, but classes will still be in session at home.
Students will access and complete work through their devices. Lunches will not be served. If you have questions about the day, please contact your student’s principal.

We need your help. We had an online mask sale through Sportsform, a 3rd party vendor a few weeks ago. The masks arrived and folks received an email from the vendor to call us and make arrangements or pick them up.
We want to make sure everyone receives the mask(s) they have ordered and paid for. If you know any of the folks listed below, please ask them to call us at C.O.- 765.348.7550, or stop by and pick up their mask. Thank you!
