UPDATE (9:34 a.m.):

Please be advised that we have decided to keep students at our schools.  Due to the uncertainty and the movement of the weather front we cannot ensure that students will be delivered home prior to its arrival in our area.  The latest information from the National Weather Service and the local emergency management operations center indicates that the weather should be out of our area by afternoon loading times of buses, which is what originally precipitated the decision for early release.  

If parents wish to pick their children up from school today this will not be an issue.

 

All afterschool activities are still canceled.

UPDATE:  The early dismissal time has been changed to 11:00 a.m. due to updated weather forecasts.
