Grizzly families,

James Nolan
Superintendent of Schools.
Good morning, Grizzly families.
The Odessa-Montour Central School District will be operating on a 2-Hour Delay, February 6th, as we monitor the Winter Weather Advisory.
James Nolan,
Superintendent of Schools.
Dear Grizzly Families,
The National Weather Service has issued a Cold Weather Advisory for our community, with colder temperatures anticipated to persist over the coming days. Throughout the holiday weekend, the facilities department of Odessa-Montour CSD has diligently inspected our campuses to ensure they are prepared for the arrival of students tomorrow morning.
Additionally, our transportation department is taking extra precautions to allocate additional time for students at their bus stops. To assist with timely bus routes, please wait for the bus in a warm location and promptly board when it arrives. Attached is a picture from the National Weather Service to guide students and families in dressing appropriately for the colder temperatures.
Student safety is paramount and as indicated in our student handbook, all recess activities will be conducted indoors during frigid temperatures.
Our district works closely with several municipalities to determine when we delay or close school. As always, we will make every effort to notify families as soon as possible if that is to occur.
Thank you in advance for your support,
James Nolan
Odessa-Montour Central School District
Superintendent of Schools
