Good Morning, Huskies,
We have some inclement weather moving in, so please call in a weather excuse if you need to. We are scheduled to run regular hours today but feel free to pick up your Scholars after 1:30 p.m. if you think that's best. We are monitoring the weather for tomorrow and will post any updates. Middle School will not have open lunch to leave campus today due to the weather! Stay Safe, Huskies, 4 more School Days left!

This is a reminder that we will be having a Lockdown drill at the school tomorrow. The drill is scheduled to take place at 10:20 am.
We will conduct a lockdown drill on Wednesday, May 1, 2024, at approximately 10:15 AM at our school. Conducting lockdown drills is critical to ensuring our students and staff's safety and preparedness. In alignment with BSSD safety guidelines, lockdown drills are conducted at least twice a year, once each semester. These drills are essential in preparing our school community for potential emergency situations. We will involve local VPOs and VPSOs in our drill, as their participation provides invaluable expertise and realism to the exercise. During the drill, students and staff will practice the actions to take if an actual lockdown is necessary. The aim is to ensure everyone can quickly and safely find shelter in a secured classroom or evacuate if needed. Examples of situations that might initiate a lockdown include the presence of a dangerous animal within the school, an intruder, a violent individual, a report of a weapon, or an active assailant. We appreciate your support and understanding as we conduct this lockdown drill. Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact the school office. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Regular start time to school today. The front entrance is snowed in, so use the north side doors. We understand that travel may be difficult, or you may need extra time to shovel out entryways and rides. Please call in a weather excuse if you are not able to make it to school. Stay safe Huskies!
Attention: Change of meeting time-We are still holding parent conferences this evening but will close at 7 p.m. to get everyone home early. If you are not able to pick up your Huskie's report card tonight, please come by the school tomorrow to get it.
