The MWSU honor choir that was scheduled for tomorrow(2/14) has been postponed. A make-up date will be announced soon.

Last nights post stating that roads were poorly bladed, was not well thought out. It was poorly written. The late decision to cancel school was made because of below zero wind chills and both blacktop and gravel roads being unsafe to travel on in some places throughout the school district. The school district appreciates the efforts of all road crew personnel who worked late and long hours to improve roads throughout the region. Please accept my apology for last nights poorly worded post. Danny Johnson
