Out of an abundance of caution due to the first wintry road conditions and the potential for icy spots as temperatures drop, Adams Central will be on a 2 hour delay for Friday, December 13. This delay allows first-time drivers, parents, and buses to navigate safely in daylight and gives road crews extra time to address those intersections where icy conditions exist. School will be in session following the delay. Thank you for your understanding.
Next week, the elementary and middle/high schools will add holiday fun with dress-up days! Note that the dress-up days differ in elementary and middle/high school.
