As winter weather continues to impact our community, including hazardous travel conditions, extreme cold temperatures, and ongoing power outages in some areas, Wednesday, January 28, and Thursday, January 29, will be Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) days. Teachers will communicate expectations for NTI work and will be available to support students as needed.
We know this has been a challenging time, and we appreciate your patience as we work through these conditions together. We recognize that power-outages and other weather-related disruptions continue to impact some households. Please know that schools will work with students to provide flexibility and time to complete assignments when we are able to return to in-person learning.
We will continue to closely monitor conditions as we determine plans for the days ahead. As always, safety remains our top priority, and we thank families for their cooperation, flexibility, and understanding during this extended period of severe weather.
Please continue to monitor the BC Schools app and official district communication channels for updates.
In Service,
Amy Irwin, Superintendent
