First, I hope this message finds you safe and well. I know these are difficult days, and we all look forward to a return to normalcy. As our community continues to assess the devasting impact left by Hurricane Helene, know that our school district is also working to identify the extent of damages to our schools and facilities.
Based on recent reports and anticipated long-term power outages, we will extend the closure of schools through at least Friday, October 4, 2024.
We will continue to provide updates in the coming days, as quickly as possible, regarding the state of our schools. This includes staff options for returning to work in a safe manner, as well as updates on plans for makeup athletic events and other student activities. Information will be shared on our websites and with local news media.
Meanwhile, please continue to remain safe during clean-up efforts. This type of traumatic event is hard on us all, especially our children. With that in mind, keep focusing on your families, loved ones, and those who may be in need.
Sincerely,
