All,
My apologies for the late notice as I'm trying to get to Bismarck. School will start at 10:00 am with staff reporting at 9:30. I've been in contact with officials from the state highway department and a variety of weather sources. The one thing weather people don't get wrong is the wind and it's supposed to blow. Buses will run where possible, no breakfast will be served, and no morning PK. A decision will be made by no later than 8:00 am should school be cancelled for the day.

Please share!!!
Based on the forecast and now the storm expanding further into our district.... We will not have school on Tuesday. The eastern winds will make travel awful in the country throughout the day. Teachers have been instructed to provide independent enrichment activities for tomorrow, as we do not have e-learning. The decision to make up time is at the discretion of the board should they choose to do so. Stay safe and warm!

At his funeral today, his family donated these two FB back to Garrison High School. They are the Missouri River Basin Conference Champions in 1969 and 1971.

All,
I've been in contact with my go to meteorologist and also comparing other forecasts. In light of this information, we will be dismissing school at school 2:00 to ensure everyone gets home safely before wind speeds gust to 35-70 mph with blowing snow and icy roads. Wind is something meteorologist never get wrong in ND.
Stay safe and warm!
