Due to unstable weather conditions, including high wind advisories (gusts up to 60 mph) and potential snowfall reducing visibility, Maquoketa CSD will have a virtual learning day today, Wednesday, March 5th. The safety of our students, staff, and families is our top priority, and we are erring on the side of caution given the unpredictable nature of this storm. 📅 Conferences Update: * Conferences today (March 5th) are canceled and will be rescheduled for Wednesday, March 12th. * Conferences on Thursday, March 6th, will continue as planned. * Additional details and conference sign-up information will be shared soon. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate these challenging weather conditions. Thank you for your flexibility, and stay safe! Superintendent Notz

Good morning! With today being our first Virtual Learning Day of the school year, I wanted to remind you that Virtual Learning Packets were sent home with elementary students during fall parent/teacher conferences (or shortly afterwards if you were unable to attend). These packets are in a Manila folder and have “Must Do” & “May Do” activities for students to complete, labeled Day 1 through Day 5. The “Must Do” activities are required to be returned to school and turned into your student’s teacher, where we will account for them as your student’s attendance. These must be returned to the teacher the day we return to in-person learning. If you cannot find your packet at this time, please reach out to your student’s teacher through email or Rooms for another digital version of the day’s work. If you need any assistance, please reach out to your student’s teacher or me through email and/Rooms and we will be happy to assist you! Stay warm & we hope to see you soon!! Mrs. Recker
