East Union will have a 2 hr delay today, Jan 23 - NO morning activities
Eagle Families:
Iowa put in place the ability for districts to utilize up to five "virtual days" in order to make up the time missed due to adverse weather conditions. We were hoping to not utilize that option as we value face to face time with our students. However, with the weather we've experienced the last two weeks we've had more missed days already than in recent school years.
If we have to miss more school due to weather conditions in the coming week(s), we will be utilizing virtual learning for those days. Elementary students will be bringing home a folder with work, middle and high school students will be bringing home their Chromebooks to receive and complete work from their teachers.
Thank you for your understanding as we work to make the best of a challenging situation.
Sincerely,
Tim Kuehl,
Superintendent
