No CTE or Basketball practice this Friday.
Students will receive the printed itinerary today for the PBIS Field Trip on Friday, Jan 31st.
We will be doing a reverse pickup because the trip is in Newberry, those local families are responsible for transportation to and from the Big Valley Ski and Tube Hill on Hamilton Lake Road. Students in Paradise, Strongs, Eckerman and Hulburt will have pickup times on the itinerary. Meet us at the facility at 11 AM. Lunch will be served around 11:20 and the hill will be open at noon. Once the hill closes at 2 PM, Newberry parents will need to pick up their kids. The bus will drop off the Paradise, Strongs, Eckerman and Hulburt students after departing the hill at 2:15 pm. If you have any questions, please call Mr. Gross (906) 630-0985 If your child will NOT be in attendance, please let me know (for ordering food and transportation purposes) Miss Mills is NOT available and will be out of the office until Thursday Jan 30th.
Due to the shift of weather with the extreme wind gusts and impending snow we will be closing today at 12:30 so our bus is on the road before the storm hits. Practices will also be cancelled for the day.
There is a storm cell that I did not see or anticipate. Staff is reporting zero visibility. We will be closed today Jan 23rd. Please do not drive if you do not have to. I apologize for the late call.
I apologize for the late call but school will be canceled today. Some roads between here and Newberry are not plowed and winds pick up more with very low visibility. We also have several staff and students sick. The game scheduled for tonight will be made up if possible. Sorry for any inconvenience
Per Sault Schools: the Sault High School will be closed Wednesday Jan 22. No CTE.
I am aware of the storm rolling in. I will be on the roads at 4 am to assess the conditions. Please stay warm and check on your neighbors and the elderly!
All after-school programming is canceled due to the weather/road conditions. This includes basketball practice.
Due to the amount of snow and issues with our snow removal equipment, we are on a two-hour delay. We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.
Due to several factors (with weather and snow equipment being a couple), Whitefish Township Community School will be closed Tuesday January 21st. Please travel safely if out and about and stay warm!
I recently received a call from Cloverland Electric. They expect to have power restored late tonight. If, for some reason, you still do not have power and need a place to warm up, shower, or charge your phones, please feel free to reach out. Many thanks to the hard-working members of Cloverland.
I was just informed that Eckerman and Whitefish will be without power for 3-5 days. The school will be available (as soon as I get there) for warmth, charging, showers, etc.
I do not know the status of school on Monday but that decision will be made Sunday if warranted.
The town hall and emergency building is open also if you need an immediate place to go.
Please keep an eye on your pipes, we have extremely cold weather coming.
My cell is 906-630-0985 if you need to get a hold of me. Mr Gross
