Good afternoon,
Thank you so much for your patience as we try our very best to respond to Missouri's ever-changing weather! Of course, we will have another round overnight with rain/snow and plummeting temperatures right in the middle of our day..... I am working with our transportation provider (Joe Nuener- Rudroff) and other area superintendent to evaluate driving conditions; unfortunately, I am not the only one with a broken crystal ball :( (If someone is interested in a business venture, crystal ball repair might be an untapped market in our area:)).
As usual, I will be checking in on the forecast and the group around 8 pm; I will let you know then if I feel confident. Most likely, I will need to reevaluate in the morning; we typically begin conversations at 4 am and try our best to make a decision by 5 am. Please be prepared for all possibilities: full snow day or an early dismissal. I hope the information helps you plan. As always, I am trying my best to balance the need to continue learning and safety as a priority.
Thank you again for your patience and have a warm Wildcat evening!
Bob
Please exercise caution when arriving at school today. There are a few patches of ice around campus.
Linn R-II schools will be in session today, 1/10 for our regularly schedule classes; busses will run normal routes unless you receive a call otherwise. If you are driving, please exercise caution, give yourself additional time, and be aware of other drivers. When in doubt, err on the side of safety; travel experiences will vary- please make the best decision for you and your family. Stay safe and warm Wildcats

Good evening Wildcat Families,
My crystal ball is on the fritz, but a multitude of factors lead me to call a Snow Day for tomorrow January 9th! The morning forecast does look fair, but the afternoon forecast does not; considering the number of young/new drivers we have, the distances our staff drives, and the uncertainty of the afternoon forecast (it changes by the minute at times), I believe that our students' and staff's safety is best served by erring on the side of caution. As promised, when I feel strongly that a decision can be made earlier, I am glad to do so for the sake of our family's planning. I will either be the smartest guy for calling tonight or the dumbest.....we will all see tomorrow. Thank you for your patience; stay warm, stay safe, and go Wildcats!

Good evening Wildcat families- mother nature likes roller coaster rides for sure! The morning looks fairly good with temps above freezing, but the afternoon forecast looks ominous. We will reassess in the morning to confirm the afternoon forecast; a decision for the day will come shortly afterward.
As usual, we will do our best to continue learning, but safety is always a primary concern. Thank you for your patience; it is never fun being the weatherman. Have a good night and go Wildcats!
Bob James; Superintendent of schools
