We have been contact with the schools that were planning on coming to our speech meet. All but one of these schools are coming from east of us where the weather had had more of an impact and most of them are not having school today the consensus from them was that they didn't want to put kids on the road in busses that early in the morning. So the Valentine Speech Meet has been cancelled for tomorrow.
Today's basketball games with Hershey have been postponed at this time. We will try to find a date that will work for both teams to re-schedule.
The manufacturing class is finishing up our 1st free standing panel!
