Superintendent reports multiple fog-related delays and closures; instructional minutes to be made up
Summary
Superintendent Bryan Easter told the board the district experienced five two-hour delays, two three‑hour delays and two school closures, and that instructional minutes will need to be made up; John Campbell flagged persistent morning fog and safety concerns.
Superintendent Bryan Easter informed the Maple School District Board on Feb. 5 that the district has 'experienced five two-hour delays, two three-hour delays, and two school closures' due to fog this season and that instructional minutes will need to be made up. The minutes attribute the summary of delays and the instructional‑minutes implication to Mr. Easter.
MOT Director John Campbell had earlier reported that recent rain increased grass growth and that 'thick morning fog has been a concern in the area' and that he has been communicating with neighboring districts about the consistent fog conditions. Board members, including Randy Bloemhof and Clerk Joel Ackerknecht, emphasized that prioritizing safety is most important; the minutes also note CHP will be on campus for an annual event.
