Today is the last day of school before we dismiss for Spring Break on March 29-April 5. April 5 will be a teacher/staff workday. We hope you have a safe and pleasant break. Please watch the website for specific updates. DO NOT come back if you have symptoms of COVID-19 OR if you have been exposed to someone over the break who has symptoms. If this is the case, call your school on Monday, fill out the online COVID reporting form, or contact Nurse Tiffany at the Middle/High School.

Tomorrow, March 18th, the Marion County School system will transition to distance learning for teachers, staff, and students. All buildings will be closed due to the potential for a significant weather event. The weather will potentially be worse in the morning when our buses and car riders/drivers are on the road. There is a potential for high winds, tornadoes, and loss of power. For more information, visit https://www.weather.gov/media/ffc/Briefings/Special_Briefing_Mar_17_1PM.pdf and view slides 12, 15, 17, and 26.
Just a reminder that the time changes this weekend! Don't forget to Spring Forward before you go to bed Saturday night.

As of today, Governor Kemp has opened COVID vaccines for educators. We plan to offer vaccinations to our faculty and staff on Friday, March 12, at the high school in a drive-through format. This may cause some congestion near the gym area. This is a very positive step in the process of moving back toward normalcy and keeping people safe.
