Bluford Schools are cancelled Thursday, February 3. This will be a snow day! We will assess snowfall totals and road conditions tomorrow to make a decision for Friday.
The high school girls’ game tomorrow night (2/3/22) vs Sandoval has been postponed. They are rescheduled to play on Monday, February 7, instead of playing Brownstown. This will be SENIOR NIGHT.
Kids Quest Update per Ms. Gina - weather permitting Kids Quest will start back on February 10th, but after February 10th there will be no meetings again until March 10th. If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Gina.
The weather is moving faster than expected, so we are going to move our dismissal up one hour to 1:00 p.m. All students will be dismissed at 1:00. Also, we are not sending students to Rend Lake today. Additionally, there will be no after school program and all PM activities are cancelled.
With the impending weather tomorrow, we will dismiss at 2:00 p.m. to stay ahead of the ice. The rest of the week doesn't look promising, so it would be best to line up child care if necessary. However, we will assess any potential cancellation for Thursday and Friday one day at a time.
"We Love the USA!" Thank you to Mrs. Steward and Mrs. Jones' kindergarten students for creating this patriotic bulletin board for February.
