Good afternoon,
At this time, no decision has been made with regard to school tomorrow as we are continuing to monitor forecasts which have varied predictions for areas across Page County. However, in order to allow staff and families time to prepare for tomorrow, we are advising you that we may need to call a two-hour delay tomorrow morning to navigate potential icy conditions, we may need to release students early to avoid flooded areas, or we may need to cancel school if some locations become unsafe for travel. We will notify staff and families by 8:30pm tonight or by 5:30 am tomorrow morning if there are any changes to the schedule for Tuesday, Jan. 9.
We thank you in advance for your continued patience as we work to ensure the safety of all staff and students.

Yesterday, 4th grade students at Springfield Elementary School received presents of bookmarks and ornaments, designed and colored, from their "pen pals" at Luray High School. The club, sponsored by Mrs. Brandi Alger at LHS, pairs high school students with a 4th grade student and throughout the year letters are exchanged (through the sponsor). This is a very popular club at LHS.
Yesterday, Luray High School band, choir, and color guard joined with Luray Middle School band and visited Springfield Elementary and Luray Elementary to perform their Winter Concert for the students.
Luray High School is in the holiday spirit.
