SCHOOL CALENDAR CHANGE
There will be a change in our upcoming school calendar. Friday, January 20th will
now be an early dismissal day with school dismissing at 11:30 AM that

professional development that afternoon.

                          coat with their name. Also, make sure names are on
                          lunch boxes and backpacks as many look the same.
                          Thanks for your help! This will help in identifying lost
                          items. If your child is missing a jacket/coat, please
                          check the coat rack in the school lobby. It is already
                          very full of items, water bottles and lunch boxes
included. During Christmas break, any remaining items will be donated to
Calvary’s Gift.

INCLEMENT WEATHER PROCEDURES
 It's that time of year again when winter weather may cause school to be
cancelled or dismissed early due to a winter storm causing hazardous road
conditions. As much as possible, Trinity Lutheran School follows the
Jefferson City Public Schools' procedures regarding school closings and
cancellations due to hazardous weather conditions. Should school be
dismissed early or cancelled, you will receive a Parent Alert text or
email. Please make sure that your phone number and email address are
correct in FACTS so that you receive these alerts. You may also tune into
KRCG-TV, KMIZ-TV, or KOMU-TV.

In the event school is dismissed early due to a developing winter storm,
AFTER SCHOOL CARE WILL NOT BE PROVIDED. Please plan now to make
arrangements for your children to be picked up when and if an early
dismissal time is announced.

Keep in mind that should school be dismissed early or cancelled, all after-
school and evening activities would also be cancelled. Decisions regarding
scheduled basketball contests will be made by the PAL officials. Please visit
their website at www.cmpal.org for updates and cancellations.

all who are interested. Praise God from Whom ALL blessings flow!

Only 3 shopping days at Calvary’s Gift remain before Christmas! The volunteers will be taking
a break for the holidays, so the store will be closed Dec. 24 -Jan 10. If you are interested in
supporting the students and families at Calvary by volunteering your time, come see where
you can help out in the new year. Call (573) 821-8875.
