Dear Cardinal Families,
Thank you for your patience, cooperation, and understanding with this morning’s two-hour delay. The delay allowed our emergency responders the time and space needed to address a tragic house fire near our school.
Sadly, three members of our community lost their lives. While no students were involved, we know that in a small community like ours, a tragedy like this has ripples that reach many.
We teach our children the importance of kindness, compassion, and taking care of our neighbors. Today is an opportunity for all of us to model those values.
Please keep the families and loved ones affected by this tragedy in your thoughts. We also extend our sincere gratitude and respect to the firefighters, law enforcement officers, and emergency personnel who responded this morning.
A special thank you to our staff members who stepped up, adjusted their routines, and helped manage our modified arrival and traffic procedures to ensure a safe and smooth start to the school day.
Thank you for being a community that looks out for one another.
Bob Walker, Superintendent
