Important Notice Regarding Tomorrow's Weather
__________________________
Parents & Families,
We know it’s been a long wait, but the time is finally here! Queue the celebration!
USD 336 is closely monitoring the forecasted temperatures and wind chill factors for tomorrow. Our primary concern is the safety of students and whether our buses can withstand the factors to safely transport students.
USD 336 will do everything we can to run a TWO-HOUR DELAY schedule tomorrow, February 20. There will be no AM 3- and 4-year-old Preschool; Infant-Toddler will drop-off begin at 9:30am. Washburn Tech will run at normal time. Breakfast will be served starting at 9:30am.
**Note: this may be subject to change depending on unforeseen conditions. Please watch for changes to be communicated via text, email, social media, and new stations between now and 7:00a.
Please take your time getting to the buildings in the morning. We realize all routes are not the same and not all road conditions are favorable.
As a precaution, we have increased the fuel additive in an attempt to prevent the buses from gelling. Unfortunately, the cold air intake increases when the buses slow at their stops. Please be aware that we may still experience busing issues in the morning even with the later run times. If you are able to bring your child rather than ride the bus or walk, we encourage you to do so!
Bus Riders: please contact your drivers if your child will not be riding in the morning so routes can run as efficiently as possible to minimize time on the roads.
Please take extra precautions when coming to school. With the possibility of icy and slippery walkways, ensure that students wear appropriate footwear with good traction to reduce the risk of slipping.
We also encourage wearing warm, layered clothing including hats, gloves, and scarves to stay comfortable during colder temperatures. Remind teen drivers to dress warmly, pack emergency supplies in their vehicle, clear their windows before driving, and take it slow on the roads.
We are thrilled to see you again soon! Please be safe!

Padres y Familias,
Sabemos que la espera ha sido larga, ¡pero por fin ha llegado el momento! ¡Que comience la celebración!
USD 336 está monitoreando de cerca las temperaturas pronosticadas y la sensación térmica para mañana. Nuestra principal preocupación es la seguridad de los estudiantes y si nuestros autobuses pueden resistir los factores para transportar a los estudiantes de manera segura.
USD 336 hará todo lo posible para implementar un horario de RETRASO DE DOS HORAS mañana, 20 de febrero. No habrá Preescolar de 3 y 4 años por la mañana; Infant-Toddler comenzará a dejar a los niños a las 9:30 am. Washburn Tech funcionará a la hora normal. Se servirá el desayuno a partir de las 9:30 am.
**Nota: esto puede estar sujeto a cambios dependiendo de condiciones imprevistas. Esté atento a los cambios que se comunicarán por mensaje de texto, correo electrónico, redes sociales y estaciones de noticias entre ahora y las 7:00 am.
Tómese su tiempo para llegar a los edificios por la mañana. Nos damos cuenta de que todas las rutas no son iguales y no todas las condiciones de las carreteras son favorables.
Como precaución, hemos aumentado el aditivo de combustible en un intento de evitar que los autobuses se congelen. Desafortunadamente, la entrada de aire frío aumenta cuando los autobuses disminuyen la velocidad en sus paradas. Tenga en cuenta que aún podemos experimentar problemas con los autobuses por la mañana, incluso con los horarios de funcionamiento más tarde. Si puede traer a su hijo en lugar de que viaje en autobús o camine, ¡le recomendamos que lo haga!
Pasajeros del autobús: comuníquese con sus conductores si su hijo no viajará por la mañana para que las rutas puedan funcionar de la manera más eficiente posible para minimizar el tiempo en las carreteras.
Tome precauciones adicionales al venir a la escuela. Ante la posibilidad de que haya caminos helados y resbaladizos, asegúrese de que los estudiantes usen calzado adecuado con buena tracción para reducir el riesgo de resbalones.
También recomendamos usar ropa abrigadora en capas, incluidos gorros, guantes y bufandas, para mantenerse cómodos durante las temperaturas más frías. Recuerde a los conductores adolescentes que se vistan abrigadoramente, que empaquen suministros de emergencia en su vehículo, que limpien sus ventanas antes de conducir y que conduzcan lento en las carreteras.
¡Estamos encantados de verlos de nuevo pronto! ¡Por favor, manténganse a salvo!
