🚨DMJ Parents!
School will start at 9:45 this morning. That is a two hour delay.
Buses will run on highways only. If your road has low hanging limbs and branches the bus will not travel on that road. You may make arrangements with your bus driver.
We apologize for any inconvenience but safety for all is the priority.

🚨 DMJ School Delay Announcement 🚨
Due to the freezing rain and potentially icy road conditions, Deer/Mt. Judea Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay on Tuesday, February 11. The safety of our students, staff, and community is our top priority.
Roads may be icy in places and there are many trees sagging into the road possibly making it difficult for buses to travel. We will assess the roads and down trees in the daylight and provide an update around 7 am.
Please use caution if you must be on the roads, and allow extra time for travel. We will continue to monitor conditions and provide updates.
Stay safe and watch for ice! 🧊

🚨🚨DMJ: Students, Parents, and Staff,
We are checking the weather closely. Tonight into Tuesday morning and Tuesday night into Wednesday morning are the concerns with rain and temperatures near freezing. Please check back for possible school closure announcements!

The Deer/Mt Judea Art Club is having a Valentine's Day Sale! Make your order today. Orders can be delivered to both campuses.


🤧 To help keep our school community healthy, please remember: If your child is feeling sick, has a fever, or is showing symptoms of illness, they should stay home and rest. Keeping sick students home helps prevent the spread of germs and allows them to recover faster. 🤒
✅ Fever-free for 24 hours without medication before returning
✅ No vomiting or diarrhea for 24 hours
✅ Encourage handwashing & healthy habits
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our students and staff safe!
