Mascoutah CUSD 19 will not hold classes either in person or remote tomorrow, Wednesday, February 17, 2021. Road conditions, very low wind chill temperatures, as well as more snow in the forecast are the main factors in making this decision. A snow day means that there are no lunches again tomorrow. The last day of school is now scheduled for Tuesday, May 25.
Due to the inclement weather conditions, school will be cancelled tomorrow, Tuesday, February 16, 2021. We will use a snow day; there will be no in-person or remote instruction. We will make up the day at the end of the school year. Monday, May 24, 2021, will now be the last day of attendance.
