As you may know, several area districts were affected by "swatting" calls yesterday when police departments received false reports of active shooters on school campuses, leading schools to go into lockdown. We want to assure families that we take the safety of our schools seriously, as well as our students' emotional health. We have a crisis plan in place, and we communicate with law enforcement regularly to keep our students safe and respond appropriately to threats.

No school tomorrow (2-16) for USD 507 Satanta. Parent teacher conferences will still be held as scheduled. Please contact teachers if you need to reschedule or prefer a zoom or phone conference. Classes will resume Tuesday, 2-21.
Based on predictions of wind and snow, we have decided to cancel school for tomorrow, February 15. Because blowing snow is predicted for dismissal time, we believe it is safer to keep students at home rather than risk sending them home in unsafe conditions. This decision was made after discussion with area school superintendents. Stay safe and warm!
