2004-05 School Year Calendar Available Online

In an effort to cut costs, Region 15 will not be distributing paper calendars for the school year. The school calendars will be available on-line via the calendar link on the Region15.org website. If you are unable to download or print the calendar from the website, please ask the staff in the principal's office and they will make you a copy.

Latest Information, School Cancellations/Delays

We want you to be the first to know about budget votes, school closings and/or delays, and other critical information. This information will be posted immediately on the front page of the Region 15 website in the red scrolling bar in the middle of the page.

School delays/cancellations can also be heard on select radio & tv stations.
