Â鶹ӰÒô

All City School District of Â鶹ӰÒô schools will dismiss 15 minutes early Friday, Oct. 8 to participate in the annual Go Home Early emergency preparedness drill. The State Education Department requires all schools to conduct this test each year.

All after-school activities will be cancelled. However, student-athletes will be permitted to return to their athletic venues at 3:15 p.m. for modified teams and 3:45 p.m. for Â鶹ӰÒô High School teams. At early dismissal, Â鶹ӰÒô High student-athletes should report to the bleachers on the turf athletic field. Student-athletes at Stephen and Harriet Myers Middle School should report to the baseball field.

Please read the following information carefully to assist with your planning for after-school programs.
