A Note of Gratitude
The Hancock Staff would like to thank all families who were able to keep students home on Wednesday while we worked with our district’s Physical Plant Operations Department to fix the electrical disruption on campus. Please know each student absent received an excused absence for Wednesday, March 1st. With limited students on campus we were able to remedy the situation, test all alarms, security, internet, and phones which would have disrupted instruction throughout the entire day. The weather was also not cooperative and delayed the fix even more. We appreciate our Hancock families for making arrangements so quickly on our behalf.
