Second graders Karys and Harley just finished reading/doing a report on The Long Winter by Laura Ingalls Wilder. We hope this means that winter will now be done here! Good Job, girls!!! ❤️📖💙❄️
PLEASE READ ENTIRE MESSAGE: With the potential for winter weather on Friday, March 31st, the Hitchcock-Tulare School has put together a contingency plan for prom if we are not able to have it on Friday. The back-up plan will be to move it to Saturday with all start times (banquet, grand march, etc) and picture times mirroring the original Friday plan. We all know that weather is unpredictable and we are constantly getting updates from National Weather Service on this system. We will get an update tomorrow morning and tomorrow afternoon so a FINAL DECISION ON PROM WILL NOT BE MADE UNTIL TOMORROW BY 6:00 PM. This will give us a chance to look at the most recent forecast for this storm before making a decision and sending information out to everyone. We are hoping for the best and praying that this system slides south of I-90. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

URGENT MESSAGE CONCERNING PM BUS ROUTES: Starting today (Friday, March 24th) all afternoon bus routes will run on oil surfaces only until the gravel road conditions improve. We will still run morning routes as normal provided that the roads remain frozen during that time, but may have to adjust that at a later date if needed. Someone from the school will contact each afternoon bus parent to go over pick up options for your students. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your cooperation. Thank you.
