At South School we teach our Little Panthers about the power of YET. When I come to something I can't do, I remind myself that I can't do it YET. With effort, perseverance, and asking for help when I need it, I will get it!

Good evening
Due to staffing shortfalls related to illness, we must close all Watervliet Public Schools on Tuesday, January 25th.
Tomorrow will be treated like a snow day, with no students or staff reporting.
School leaders will work to make plans for Wednesday and beyond. The options we will be considering include:
* opening schools with limited or delayed bus runs;
* opening schools with families needing to provide their own transportation;
* keeping schools closed through Thursday,
* or providing remote instruction for Wednesday and Thursday.
You will receive a message from Watervliet Schools with these next steps.
Again, please look for information tomorrow afternoon regarding our next steps.
Thank you
