Due to excessive rain and flooding conditions there are a few changes to some of our bus routes this afternoon. We will update our Facebook page with that information. Some students may arrive later than usual due to detours around low water crossings as well. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
In an effort to protect the health of our students, staff, and community, we temporarily advise parents to keep sick students home until they have been fever free and symptom free for 48 hours.
Previously that number was 24 hours. This cautionary change comes as a result of the recent rise in illnesses on our campuses. Please contact your child’s campus Nurse with any questions/concerns.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. This measure is only temporary.
Cave City Schools will run regular bus routes Tuesday morning. We appreciate your patience and understanding last week, and thank you for your support.
A friendly reminder that Cave City Schools will not be in session on Monday January 20th in observance of MLK Day. Also note that school will be in session on February 17 and March 14 to make up days missed due to recent snow days. Stay warm this weekend and be safe!
There are still a few roads in our district that are unsafe for bus travel so we will continue to use driver discretion for Thursday bus routes. Mr. Wilson has updated the road listing on our District Facebook page. We appreciate your support and thank you for your patience and understanding during this process.
Friends. Our plan was to transition back to full bus routes sooner than later but many of our gravel and side roads are still unsafe. Our bus drivers will again use driver discretion on Wednesday routes. The CCSD Facebook page will continue to be updated with the list of roads that we will not travel. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding as we focus on student and employee safety above all else. We respect the right of any parent to keep their student home if they deem their road unsafe. We also ask that parents bringing their student to school also plan on picking them up if a bus didn’t come by in the morning. Thank you for your continued support.
Cave City schools will be in session on Tuesday, January 14. Our drivers will run their routes based on their individual discretion. Drivers will let our route supervisor know as soon as possible what portions of their route they can’t travel so we can post this to our Facebook page for you. We will try to update it hourly as we receive information. As stated before, we respect the right of any parent to keep their student home if they deem their road unsafe. We also ask that parents bringing their student to school also plan on picking them up if a bus didn’t come by in the morning. Thank you for your understanding and your support.
Friends. Due to conditions on our dirt roads and some side roads, there will be no school at Cave City on Monday. We will make up tomorrow by attending on March 14. It is likely that we will have school on Tuesday using bus driver discretion. Mr Wilson will use our Facebook page to post what bus routes will be impacted on Tuesday. Also, we respect any parent/guardian’s right to keep their student home on Tuesday in an abundance of caution if your road is questionable. We appreciate your understanding as we focus on student and employee safety above all else. Thank you for your continued support.
Cave City schools will be closed tomorrow due to weather moving in tonight. We will make this day up by attending on Presidents' Day February 17th. We have also canceled our home basketball games scheduled tonight against Flippin. Those games have been rescheduled for January 27th at 5:00. We do plan on staying all day today, but we have canceled all after school activities in an abundance of caution. We hope that everyone has a safe weekend and hope to be back in school as soon as possible next week.
Friends. We look very forward to a safe and productive 2025. It's that time of year where the weather becomes unpredictable sometimes. As in the past, we will make every effort to let you know as soon as possible when our school will be closed or delayed due to weather. We continue to use our text system, facebook page, local radio, and KAIT. If a decision can't be made by 10:00 pm, we will try to notify you by 6 am on the day of concern. We no longer have AMI days, so our snow days are already established on our school calendar as make up days. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we prioritize student safety. And as always, we gladly support parents who decide to keep students home in an abundance of caution. Thank you so very much for your continued support!

Thank you Samantha for taking the time to come work with our students!! We appreciate you!
