Congratulations to Aimee Caldwell and Sienna Hahn for being selected to the Missouri All-State Choir.

Dear Tiger Families,
Students will not come to school on Friday, January 10, 2025, because a winter storm is expected overnight. Instead, Friday will be an Alternative Methods of Instruction (AMI) day. Teachers worked with students today to get them ready for at-home learning. Students will either do online assignments or finish work that was sent home. Your student’s building will share more information about their assignments.
The National Weather Service says our area may get 5 to 7 inches of snow on Friday, with at least 2 to 3 inches by morning. While weather can change, we want to keep everyone safe and avoid putting buses on slick roads.
Thank you for understanding and working with us. Stay safe and prepare for more winter weather coming soon.
Have a great evening!
