After surveying our back road network this morning, we have determined that many of our roads are still unsafe for travel. Therefore, there will be no school today, February 4.
Thank you, and please be safe.
Did You Know? Our Transportation Department operates 48 school buses and travels more than 4,000 miles each school day within our 58-square mile district boundary. (Even in a snow storm.) Grateful for our hardworking drivers.

#WolvesAchieve
All schools (including ECC) are closed today, Monday, November 26, due to dangerous driving conditions this morning and predicted deteriorating conditions throughout the day,. All afternoon and evening activities for Monday are canceled as well, unless otherwise indicated.
We believe school breaks should be just that - a brief reprieve from school responsibilities like homework, special projects, planning, and grading. Therefore, all students and educators will be free of academic-related work during school breaks.
#WeAreClarkston
We apologize for the late notice, but Clarkston High School will be closed today due to an unexpected building problem. One of our boilers has gone down, and based on outside temperatures, we have determined that we can’t run school today.

Due to the snowy conditions, we are dismissing SECONDARY SCHOOLS ONLY (SMS, CJHS, CHS, RHS) 30 minutes early this afternoon. This will give our buses time to get those students home safely in preparation for elementary runs. ALL afternoon & evening activities are canceled.
Seniors, did you hear the news? For the first time in Clarkston history, our graduates will have the opportunity to decorate their caps! Time to get creative!
#Clarkston2020
We encourage all of our students to get outdoors, especially on beautiful days like today; however, please be reminded that all of our campuses are closed. For everyone's safety, we are asking that families refrain from using our outdoor facilities at this time.

32 tons of salt, 20+ maintenance and custodial staff members, 4 trucks, and more hours than we can count. That is was it took today to ensure our campus drives, parking lots, and walkways were clear and safe this afternoon. Please join us in thanking them!
