Due to inclement weather, SSD's schools, sites and programs, including SSD Central Office, will be closed on Tuesday, Feb. 9. All classes for both virtual and in-person students have been cancelled. The Board of Education meeting scheduled for tonight will still be held.

February is Black History Month and students and staff are working on a number of special learning opportunities. While we look forward to sharing photos and stories from these activities, we also remain committed to continuing this important learning throughout the year.

As we celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. King, SSD Superintendent Dr. Elizabeth Keenan has message for the entire SSD community. tinyurl.com/SSDMLKDay.

We saw a few snowflakes earlier this week and that means it’s time for a refresher on school closing information. Review our policies, communication plan and, if you haven’t already done so, opt-in for the SchoolMessenger notification system. ssdmo.org/Page/1149

Today is National Education Support Professionals Day! We’d like to take a moment to thank each of the outstanding professionals, many behind the scenes, who partner each day for each student’s success.
