Crews need additional time to clear snow, and some bus routes are not drivable. We want to prioritize everyone’s safety; therefore, classes are cancelled for tomorrow, Wednesday, January 8, 2025, due to ongoing winter weather conditions.

A special thank you to the Shawnee Heights Fire District who helped us celebrate Fire Safety week. These dedicated men and women are such a critical part of our community. We were honored to host them yesterday for their annual fire safety presentation. There was a good balance between belly laughs and serious conversations on what to do (and not to do) in the case of a fire. 🚒🔥
We also stumbled across a few sweet scholars of our own who have been learning all about not only firefighters, but many other community helpers this week. 🧑🏼🚒👮🏾👷🏻👩🏾⚕️
Have a great weekend!
We kicked off Fire Safety week with a grand entrance from the Shawnee Heights Fire District. 🚒🔥
Congratulations to Kassidy who was the grand-prize winner of the fire-safety poster contest. She had quite the ride into school yesterday morning! We also want to congratulate Arianna and Allison who were classroom winners for the poster contest. 🖤💛
