I know we had many questions about weather today and classes releasing along with after school activities. I want you to know I’ve been watching the weather since last night. I was on calls with the NWS twice today to make sure about timing, wind, etc and take into account all the things when making decisions. These decisions are not made lightly.

Spring weather is here in Missouri, and with it comes the potential for severe storms and tornadoes. Please take a moment to review the linked information about our FEMA Tornado Safe Room, which is available year-round on the district website.
The FEMA Safe Room is opened during a Tornado Warning for residents who live within the designated Tornado Protection Zone (TPZ) shown on the linked map.
**Severe Weather Preparation:**
**🌦️ Tornado Watch** – Conditions are favorable for severe weather. Monitor weather updates and prepare.
• Gather medications
• Locate car keys
• Charge cell phones
• Review your family safety plan

**🌪️ Tornado Warning** – A tornado has been detected by radar or sighted. **Seek shelter immediately.**
• Go to a **basement, interior room, or The FEMA Safe Room if you live within the TPZ Zone

If you or someone in your household may need special assistance during severe weather (mobility concerns, medical alerts, service animals, etc.), please complete the Special Needs Form and return it to the Superintendent’s Office as soon as possible so we can plan accordingly.
