Parents & Guardians, there is a significant water main leak affecting Lydia Rippey Elementary. While crews are working to repair this issue, the water has been shut off in the building. We are taking steps to ensure students have access to drinking water and restroom facilities. We may have to shift Lydia Rippey Elementary to virtual learning in the future. Another announcement will be made this evening regarding the status of the school for tomorrow. Should you wish to pick up your child from Lydia Rippey early today, you may do so.
Due to weather conditions school is canceled for January 3rd. Have a wonderful snow day!!!
