The elementary school cooling system has been worked on over the weekend.
As of 5:30 this afternoon:
1 room tested in the low 80 degrees and will receive Freon before school starts tomorrow morning to solve the issue.
5 rooms tested in mid 70 degrees having compressor maintenance done after school tomorrow.
The remaining classrooms tested in the upper 60’s to lower 70 degrees.
Normal school hours are scheduled for Monday.
This situation will continue to be monitored closely.
The Junior Class (After-Prom) parents are helping in the concession stand tonight at the football game. Help is needed. Please contact Nancy Wilke at (641) 414-7355.
The Varsity Double Triangular VB scheduled for tomorrow has been cancelled. It's NOT due to COVID cases. I have increasing concerns on having 6 teams on our campus and trying to provide a safe and healthy environment for all.

Good Afternoon,
It's going to be even more important this year to have access to the most updated calendar for school activities. The Clarke Activities Department uses something called rSchool for scheduling. The hard copy of athletic schedules is only accurate the minute they were printed.
We are strongly encouraging you to use our web-based system to be able to have access at your fingertips to the most updated calendar. When events change, I change it within rSchool and it updates the calendar automatically.
Please go to the URL below to get direct access to calendar information.

The first day of school is Thursday, August 27th with a 2-hour early dismissal.
Information about how to access your child's OTUS account was sent via email earlier today to the parent/guardian email addresses on file in Infinite Campus.
