🚨 Important Weather Update 🚨
Dear South Putnam Families,
As we prepare for a potential snow and ice event forecasted to impact our area late Sunday into Monday, we want to ensure you are informed and prepared. Our priority is the safety of our students, staff, and families, and we’ve been monitoring this weather system closely since the beginning of the week.
Here is our plan:
1. Road Assessments:
• We will evaluate road conditions throughout the district on Sunday evening and again early Monday morning to make the best decision for everyone’s safety.
2. Schedule Adjustments:
• If school is canceled on Monday, January 6th, we will utilize our first built-in make-up day on Monday, January 20th.
• If weather continues to affect school beyond Monday, starting Tuesday, January 7th, we will transition to synchronous e-learning.
3. Device Pick-Up:
• To prepare for potential e-learning, we encourage families to pick up student devices at school today.
As of now, this plan is contingent upon the actual weather conditions as the storm develops. We will communicate updated information on Sunday evening and/or Monday morning once we have real-time data on road conditions.
Thank you for your understanding and partnership as we navigate this situation. Stay safe, stay warm, and as always—Go Eagles!

First grade went on a fossil dig! They have been learning about animal adaptations. They studied what is helpful for animals that dig, like scoop shape, claws, and teeth. They built a prototype to dig out fossils, tested the prototype, and made improvements on the prototype. They then got to sift out the fossils and take a closer look at them. They could then sort the fossils and read the information cards about the fossils!
Don't forget to save the date for some fun with the South Putnam FFA!
Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving, Fillmore Family!
