First, thank to our community, staff, and students for all of the positive support as we are working through the water damage at our elementary school. It is greatly appreciated. The area where water has damaged part of the ceiling above the upstairs girls' bathroom was inspected today and the only damaged area is a 5'x5' area. The rest of the ceilings are dry and safe. Our next step is to test the materials in the damaged area for asbestos before we can continue with repairs, but once tested we will be ready to proceed either way. While we wait for testing to be completed and the area to be fixed the bathroom with the damage will remain closed to everyone. Repairs will take time as we need rent equipment to get on the roof to address where the water is getting in, but the snow on the ground and current weather are a factor. As of now, we expect to be back on site for Monday as the remaining ceiling in the school is safe for return.

Morton School District is going to remote learning for Friday, January 7th, 2022. This is due to the flooding and impact of water coming into the building at the Elementary School, and the rising groundwater. Students should connect with their teachers via Canvas and Google Meets. Primary-aged students will connect in the previously planned format already set up by their teachers. A robocall will be sent out after classes are released today.

Morton School District will be in remote instruction today. Students should be checking their Canvas accounts for posted work by their teachers throughout the school day. Primary age students who do not use Canvas should expect contact from their teacher or work on a previously provided packet for this situation. If the weather continues into tomorrow our non-primary age students will have online instruction, but that is for tomorrow if needed only. A decision about athletics transportation will be determined later today.

For today, December 17th, Morton School District will operate in a modified lock down for both buildings in reaction to a TikTok post being shared nationally calling for violence. In order to enter either building you will need to call the office prior to being let in. Staff spent extra time yesterday going over our protocols already in place for such potential actions. Also, our local Morton Police Department has been involved in our process from the start and will be a presence in town and at the school throughout the day - thank you Chief Morningstar and your officers.
