My 5th grader brought a flyer home about an open house/informational meeting at the MS on Thursday, Jan. 21. It is for upcoming 6 grade parents. I definitely will be attending. I just need a clarification. Is it Wed., Jan. 21 or Thur., Jan. 22? Does anyone know for sure. Yes, I know I can call and find out, but I figured somebody on here knows the answer and other parents might need the answer.

The 21st of January is on a Thursday.

Okay people - I am not crazy!! I just went back to the kitchen calender where I write stuff down that I don't want to forget. It says today is Sunday, Jan. 11. I checked the rest of the months, they are okay. Apparently, January is messed up. It is a 2 year calender I bought for $1. I guess that explains why!!!

My 5th grader brought home a paper saying the Tuesday the 26th. Maybe it's different nights for different schools.

The 21st is the only date that I've been told for the open house.

Has anyone heard if this has been canceled? Someone just told me that it was... She is a trusted source but I wanted to make certain before I posted...
Thanks!

Yes, I just called the MS. All activities for tonight including sports practices, etc. have been canceled (or postponed) for tonight.
Thanks!

Thanks- if for some reason we don't go back to school this week, that's not really giving parents much notice... but such is life...
Thanks JM!! I knew you would know!!!

Actually, interims are going home on the 19th. I think there is an Instant Alert going out about the Open House too.

btw- know of any way I can get that alert sent to my cell phone?
I have called and called without any luck...

You are not the first person who's mentioned the calls not going to their cell phone. Where have you tried?? School level or Central Office?
I had to talk with our secretary who's in charge of the messages for our school and she fixed it on her end.
