The Mount Pleasant area school district continues to experience power issues in two elementary schools, as do several Mount Pleasant area residents. Therefore, the district will be closed today, January 10, 2024, and a flexible instructional day will apply.
All students are to log onto either their Google classroom or their Schoology accounts and follow the two hour delay cancellation schedule. For families who are without power, extended timeframes for the completion of assignments will be afforded. Thank you. Stay safe and warm!!
