Great News! Power has been restored at Tecumseh North Elementary School. School will resume as normal tomorrow, December 17, 2021. Thank you for your patience and flexibility throughout this time.

At this time, power has not been restored to Tecumseh North Elementary School. If power is not restored by 5:45AM on December 17, 2021, we will need to cancel classes for Tecumseh North students. In addition, Tecumseh North Staff will have a collaboration/Professional Development day. We will update everyone by 6:00AM on December 17, 2021, on whether classes can resume for the day.

During last night’s storm, we had several district buildings lose power. Power has been restored to all buildings except Tecumseh North Elementary. Due to the power outage in that building, there will be no school for Tecumseh North students today, December 16, 2021. All other schools will be in session.
