Good Morning, This is Danny McMurtry with Maxwell Public Schools. We are aware of the rolling outages that have popped up in the area. We are going to keep our 10:00 start for school today. The big concern was meal prep and an outage would not affect us with the meal being served today. There is a chance that power will be shut off for 30-60 minutes at some point today in our district. There is also a greater chance that it won't be. Teachers are aware of the chance of this happening and will make plans accordingly. We are going to keep our doors open. As always, you ultimately make the decision if your child comes to school today. Thanks for your understanding and have a safe and warm day today!

Anselmo-Merna has decided to postpone tomorrow's subdistrict games to Wednesday. The schedule will go as follows: Wednesday, February 17: Game 1 @ 5:30: Anselmo-Merna (1) vs. Sandhills Valley (4) Game 2 @ 7:15: Ansley-Litchfield (2) vs. Maxwell (3) Thursday, February 18: Subdistrict Championship Game @ 6:00: Winner of Game 1 vs. Winner of Game 2 -With the information about the blackouts occurring in Custer County, with help from the NSAA, I did attach how we would handle it if one were to occur: We would treat the blackout similar to a maintenance issue that occurs during a game. We were informed that they would last no longer than 60 minutes (hopefully we don't have to worry about it!). -Please be sure that your bus is running during the games to ensure that players could make their way to the buses to stay as warm as possible. -Please ask that fans stay in place in the gym. -When the power comes back on, we will have a 10-minute warm up before resuming play. Again, hopefully we don't have to worry about this, but it may occur.

Late start tomorrow, February 16th at 10 a.m. Buses will run accordingly - no preschool, and no breakfast will be served. Drive safe and stay warm.

Congratulations to the following students for their awards at the Speech Meet today: Lisselle Lucas - 4th Place in Novice Serious Cole Vencill, Lisselle Lucas, Carley Jackson, Kaitlyn Miller, and Jordan Miller - 11th Place in Varsity OID Breanna Francescato - Superior in Varsity Persuasive
