There will be no school on January 16, 2023 in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.

 

Students will not report to school on January 17, 2023.  Teachers will report for a Professional Development Day. 

Over the Christmas weekend, a burst sprinkler head caused water damage to areas of the first floor at Minford Elementary and Middle School. The past few days have been spent cleaning up the damage, securing ServPro as a removal company to remove damaged materials, and working on plans to relocate classrooms and office areas that were impacted to prepare for a return to school. Our office areas saw significant damage, therefore they will be moved to other locations in the buildings- another message/website post will follow notifying you of those changes. Some classrooms are also being relocated. A posting on the website will share those locations at a later time. 

As a result, the plan for returning to school has been modified for next week. Students in grades 9-12 (high school) will return to school as normally scheduled on Wednesday, January 4th. 

There will be no school for students in grades Preschool through 8th grade on Wednesday, January 4th and Thursday, January 5th. Students in grades K-8 will return on Friday, January 6th, and preschool on Monday, January 9th. This will allow all moves to be completed, teachers to set up their new classrooms, and plans and procedures to be updated to prepare for the return of students. 

Thank you for your cooperation as we work to adjust the physical space in our buildings to bring students back into a safe learning environment. 

Here is a snapshot of the schedule and some changes to event locations for next week:
