With the report of inclement weather, we want to remind our community that Bradie Shrum Elementary opens the Safe Room at the north end of the building for ALL community members to stay safe if needed. The space is available to anyone needing shelter prior to or after a storm, and is manned by emergency certified personnel (and facilities rockstar, Matt Gorman). Please stay safe this evening!
