Last Friday, a severe electrical storm went through the area surrounding the school. Despite surge protection and barriers, the school's phone & internet systems were damaged by the lightening. Initially we thought the repairs could be completed quickly. However as the week has progressed, it has become apparent that the repairs are more complex than originally identified. Our internet connection has been restored but our phone system remains inoperable. 

We are working towards a solution by the first day of school. We apologize for any inconvenience this week! A huge thank you to all of our Technology Committee volunteers, particularly Roy Hoover and Greg Hess, who have been working extensively (including some late nights & early mornings) to solve these problems! 

Monday's Back-to-School Night will be a great evening of meeting and greeting new families and returning families, sharing a meal together, and getting oriented to new teachers and new classrooms!
