School Closure 12/16/24
Due to a critical technical failure affecting the main technology systems, including the PA system, phones, internet, and Wi-Fi, I am unable to ensure effective communication across the district. This poses a significant safety concern, as the inability to alert staff and students promptly in the event of an emergency is unacceptable.
For the safety and well-being of everyone, I have made the decision to cancel classes until these issues are resolved. Therefore, there will be no classes, tomorrow Monday, December 16th. Thank you, Mrs. Viscounte
Reminder: Winter Break begins Monday, Dec. 23. Classes resume Monday, Jan. 6.
A group of our 8th-grade girls took a field trip to NEOMED for the "STEM Goes Red" event to explore the infinite possibilities in the world of STEM. Girls from all over northeast Ohio were there to hear from women in STEM careers and participate in breakout activities, including a heart lab demonstration.
Among the speakers was Miss Ohio, who also wears the hats of a scientist, ballerina and STEM student! Thank you to her and the many wonderful women in attendance who were such an inspiration to our students!
Tomorrow! Wear your pajamas and join us for a fun-filled festive evening for the whole family!
