Superintendent’s Communication – 12.22.23
December 22, 2023
Dear Students, Staff, and Families,
Season’s Greetings!
On behalf of the Central Office Administration Team, I would like to wish everyone a holiday season filled with joy, laughter, and tranquility.
The holiday season is a special time of year that brings us together with our families and friends. It is important for all of us to embrace and appreciate those special moments. Whether it is with a large group or just a few, you will have special memories to last a lifetime.
The hard work of our students, administrators, faculty, and staff continues at our schools. We are a district that is growing and improving each and every day. We are seeing improvements academically in our students and structurally with our recently completed school renovation projects at Garvin Memorial School and Community School.
We wish you the very best this Holiday Season and a New Year that brings you happiness, health, and prosperity!
I look forward to seeing everyone back in school on Tuesday, January 2, 2024.
Happy Holidays!
Sincerely,
Philip D. Thornton, Ed.D.
Superintendent of Schools

Superintendent’s Communication – Update on Bus Fleet Area Flooding and School Status 12/19/23
Good afternoon,
I wanted to provide everyone with an important update regarding the current flooding situation at the school bus yard.
We have been closely monitoring the situation throughout the day, unfortunately, the water in the area of the bus yard is still upwards of three feet deep with a large amount of floating debris. The bus fleet however is dry.
We understand the importance of timely information for planning purposes however we will not be able to make a decision this evening on school opening tomorrow. The area will be assessed in the morning and a decision to open schools will be made at 5 a.m. tomorrow.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
Sincerely,
Philip D. Thornton, Ed.D.
