No School

 

Dear University School Families, 

Due to continued increase in the number of absences among our students and staff, we continue to be unable to adequately staff some of our classrooms and other positions essential for the effective and safe operations of our school.  As a result, we have made the decision to cancel school for the remainder of the week (Thursday, January 20th and Friday, January 21st).  We will be using two additional state-approved stockpiled days identified for inclement weather days and other emergencies to cover these two days, which will mean that May 9th will move from a starred day to a full school day for students and staff.   

Similar to Tuesday and Wednesday, these days are designated as closure days, so students and staff will not be expected to work remotely on these two days. However, dual-enrollment classes at ETSU, Northeast State and Milligan will continue as scheduled, and students enrolled in AP classes need to check Canvas and email for possible teacher instructions as these classes have additional requirements to meet to be prepared for the AP exams. 

Again, we do apologize for the inconvenience this may be causing our families, so please know that we have made this decision out of necessity and that your support and understanding are greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Brian Partin, Ed.D.

Director, University School
