					<description><![CDATA[Durand Area Schools will be closed on Tuesday, January 21st. This decision was not made lightly or without careful consideration.  While we want our children in school learning, we have to consider their safety.  After reviewing all the relevant weather charts and graphs and taking input from fellow Superintendents from our county and beyond, it was determined that it will be too cold for our students to wait at bus stops or walk to school.  Giving advance notice will hopefully help your family plan for childcare if needed.  I certainly appreciate your understanding with this matter and please stay safe and warm.

					<description><![CDATA[As many of you know, in most cases, when the forecast reaches the level of a Warning, the county schools all close down.  We have now entered the level of a Warning, which will result in the cancelation of school tomorrow.  The worst of the weather will be with us in the late afternoon, so all afternoon and evening activities will be canceled as well.  

Apparently there is a real possibility that we may receive a significant amount of ice and or sleet during this weather event.  Please remind your young drivers that brakes are not functional in breaking situations when dealing with roads that are iced, like we might see once the storm arrives.  (Sorry, I taught driver’s education for 9 years, so I worry even more about new driver’s on the road.)

Again, School canceled  and all evening activities on Wednesday, February 22.

Sincerely, 

Craig]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Good Evening Fellow Railroaders,
Well, we were holding out hope that the plows would be able to make it around to the backroads, but their progress was very limited and there are still areas of the district that haven’t been touched yet, and won’t before school tomorrow. As a result, school will be canceled on Wednesday, February 17. The food service pickup at the high school will still take place on Wednesday from 4-5:30 pm. 
As always, please be safe if you need to travel, and have a nice night. 
Sincerely,
Craig]]></description>

Tomorrow’s cancelation will be our 8th...two more than allowed by the state. I’m sure I’ll be able to apply for a waiver for a few days and I’m sure the state will be announcing something soon regarding this issue impacting schools across the state. I’ll keep everyone updated as we find out more information]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Due to blowing and drifting snow, school will be canceled on Tuesday, January 29. 

The reality is that our forecast of wind chills hovering in the minus 25 degree range are still in effect for Wednesday and Thursday, which means there is the tremendous likelihood that school will be canceled on those days as well.

Parents, please prepare for the closure of school on Wednesday and Thursday because it seems to be heading that way. I’ll be in contact again tomorrow afternoon with further updates.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Due to the winter storm warning , we are cancelling school on Monday, January 28. 

The reality is that school could be canceled on Tuesday as well due to the amount of snow projected and the high winds which will wreak havoc on the backroads. 

We are also at risk of not having school on Wednesday or Thursday due to projected record low temperatures. Anything below minus 20 degrees wind chill will trigger a cancellation. There is a very real possibility we will be out of school until Friday, so please consider making plans in advance for childcare. Please be safe if you need to be out. I will be keeping you updated on cancellations as soon as decions are made...]]></description>
