After assessing the conditions, we plan to return to school tomorrow. The biggest concern remains the frigid morning temperatures, so please ensure your student is dressed warmly. If you believe the conditions are unsafe for your student to attend, you are welcome to keep them home - be sure to notify the school as you normally would. Thank you for your flexibility and support. Please stay safe and warm; we look forward to seeing you tomorrow.
