Dear parents and guardians
We will not have school on Thursday March 17, 2022. I am sorry for the inconvenience this may cause you. The reason we are not having school is so staff members are able to support their fellow staff members in the mourning of not only a loved one, but also a prevalent community member and school supporter. Thank you for your understanding and compassion regarding this issue. We will add one student day to the end of the year making the end date May 26. Also, we will be off March 18, 2022 as planned previously. We will resume classes at C O U on March 21.
If you have any concerns or questions please contact Mr. Eggeling at the school. Thank you.
Yours in Education,
Adam Eggeling
CO-U Superintendent/Principal
