Tomorrow we have a crew inside scanning all classrooms for at Stedman to make sure we have gotten all ceiling panels back up, leaks and drips fixed, and to make sure all rooms have working doors and closets now!! Thank you for your patience, and I apologize for the massive inconvenience this cancellation presents.
We need pathways to/from:
backdoor to pool
backdoor to covered area
covered area to cafeteria ramp
cafeteria ramp (maybe? we might not be able to do anything?)
cobblestone path by library from office to covered area
stairs shoveled
ice melt placed
covered areas swept out or shoveled (it is super icy)
The MS/HS will have numerous work crews on the roofs over there to continue with the removal of snow.!
Calling all and any volunteers!!
SCHOOL CANCELLED January 5: Due to ongoing issues with snow removal, icy conditions, weather advisories, and potential damage inside the buildings, school will be canceled-NOT VIRTUAL- again Wednesday, January 5. Our maintenance crew, school staff, and local volunteers made a lot of headway at the elementary school today, but we need to focus on areas around the buildings and the middle/high school roofs and gym. If you are able to help with snow/ice removal and/or have a snowblower you are willing to share (on the roof), please call the District Office at 1-877-526-7656 for further direction. We will not be opening our doors until the roofs and entrances are cleared. Thank you and stay safe!
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:
There will be no school for students Tuesday, January 4, 2022 due to heavy roof snow loads. Our maintenance crew has been working diligently to prepare for school reopening but the additional weekend snowfall has pushed the snow limits over capacity. All schools will be closed, NOT virtual. If you are able to help with shoveling and/or have a snowblower you are willing to share (on the roof), please call the District Office at 1-877-526-7656 for further direction. Rate of pay will be $16.57/hour and you will need to complete payroll paperwork at the District Office. We will not be opening our doors until the roofs and entrances are cleared. Thank you and stay safe!
