Unofficial School Board Trustee Election Results

We are sending this message to inform you that school will be canceled on Monday May 11. Many of our staff will be attending the celebration of life to pay their respect and honor the life of Marjorie Boyce. As a result, we will be unable to maintain adequate staffing levels to safely operate the school. We believe it is important to come together during this time to show our respect and support one another.
