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
