Back to School Curriculum/Title I Nights:

A water main break occurred this morning on 5th street near Highland. This has left the Howell building at the HS without water. The City is working diligently to restore water today. In the meantime, the P66 STEM facility, retro cafeteria, and P-building all have running water and bathrooms available for students and faculty.

The Grand March is being moved to Robson Field House due to inclement weather. Each student that purchased a prom ticket received two “rain out tickets.” Ticket holders will be admitted first and then general admission until capacity is met. The Grand March starts at 6:00 PM. Student check-in starts at 5:00 PM. Doors to the Robson also open at 5:00 PM. The Grand March will be livestreamed. Students will enter the door at the southwest corner of Robson Fieldhouse. Guests will enter through the main entrance.
