IMPORTANT NOTICE - FEBRUARY 21, 2023 Dear Parents and Guardians: A storm is moving in Tuesday evening and we want to be prepared in the event we need to call a snow day and close the district. Fremont County School District #14 has been working on establishing a virtual learning plan for Wednesday and/or Thursday if needed. Alerts about virtual snow days and/or late start will be sent to you as a text message and email. It will also be posted on Chiefs Nation, the District website, and County 10. Due to the short notice, FCSD#14 has decided not to send chromebooks home with Elementary and Middle School students (PK-8). High school students who have internet access at home may check out a chromebook. Paper assignments for both Wednesday and Thursday will be sent home with all students on Tuesday (2/21/2023). The student work will need to be completed and turned into the teacher when school resumes in order for your child to be counted as present for the virtual snow day(s). Teachers will be marking the student work for each day so you will know what is expected for completion. Teachers will be communicating with parents through Zoom, text, phone, and email during the virtual snow days. Please be looking for information from your student’s teacher. This will include how you can reach the teacher if you have questions or if your student needs support in completing the work. We want to help as much as we can!
