For such a beautiful (to be) high school, one would think the website would be up to date with information. Thank goodness the bus company knows what's going on. And thank you ABC6.

It is pretty sad when you have to research and advocate from others in the state to find out whats happening in your own community! There is an issue involved in communication, as it appears evident as no one knows if there will be school or not. Leaving both families and students waiting. If we did'nt randomly stumble upon this site we too would be left to guess if school was happening monday. Thank-you for the information, but it is a testament to the underlining issues.

This makes more sense to do. Now the elementary schools can go to school on time and not have to wait when it wasn't even thier school that was being re-done. Now we get more summer reading time!! :) That's a plus.

Chill out, Dude! It's one day later than originally schedualed. (Tuesday being a holiday) Do you know what it takes to do a renovation of this size? You'll be proud of your school. Mark my words.
