We are currently monitoring Hurricane Ian’s track and will be using Thrillshare, Facebook, and our system website to communicate with families in the event that our region of the state is impacted.
It is too early to make any decisions affecting school operations at this time, but this is an opportune time for all families to ensure that their contact numbers are correct in Campus. Your child’s school data clerk can help you update your phone number if needed.
We expect to have more information about the storm’s track and impact Wednesday or Thursday, depending on how quickly it moves. All official information will be available on our system website and system Facebook page. Stay safe and tuned in for more info!
