Tiger Families,
We would like to apologize as we are aware of what occurred regarding "alerts" not getting out to all families during today's early dismissal due to a water line failure. This has been an ongoing issue for Kindergarten through 2nd grade and we have notified our "alerts" system provider and superintendent of such. Please know that we were vigilant about contacting parents who did not receive the notification. Every child is accounted for and got home safely. Again, our sincerest apologies. We will continue to improve. Thank you for your patience on this matter.
