We are planning on a normal start time tomorrow. Winds are diminishing and temperatures are rising. Buses will run where possible. We are aware that many of the country roads have not been plowed. Please be in contact with your bus driver if your roads are impassable. As always, if you are not comfortable putting your child in a vehicle, keep them at home and let us know so we can get them their work. Looking at a full week of much warmer temperatures!
Games are still on for tonight! Here is the schedule and links for live streaming. #RollTitans
