Dear Parents, Students, and Staff Due to the extreme cold temperature and the additional snow that we are expected to receive, coupled with the snow blowing and drifting over our back roads, Community School District Unit #2 will be scheduling a Remote Learning Day for tomorrow, Tuesday, February 16th. There are several school districts around us that have already scheduled for an alternate-day tomorrow and I believe there will be more adding to that list soon. If you have any questions about tomorrows Remote Learning Day, please email your building principal directly and/or your teacher. I received many positive reports since out last spontaneously scheduled Remote Learning Day so I am confident that tomorrow should go as well, if not better. Lastly, we are mandated to offer food service tomorrow so if you are interested, please email Debbie Fuchs directly (dfuchs@unit2.net) tonight or early tomorrow morning. It would be preferably to email her tonight so that our cafeteria staff will have more than enough time to prepare for the requests. Thank you for your time and consideration. It is greatly appreciated. Spencer Byrd-Superintendent
