SES Parents,
We are monitoring incoming weather that could impact our decision about being open for school tomorrow. As a precautionary measure we are making sure all students bring home their devices. A decision about school for tomorrow will not be made until early tomorrow morning. Thank you for your continued support.
As a reminder, Shelby Eastern Schools will be operating on a 2-hour delay today, Thursday, January 9th. The Shelby County Highway Department has been working closely with our Transportation Department this week to try to effectively clear as many of the roads on our bus routes as possible. We understand there may still be some trouble areas due to refreezing overnight and on lesser traveled portions of county roads. Please give our School Bus Drivers grace this morning as they navigate their routes. We will communicate any significant (10+ minutes) bus route delays via our Shelby Eastern Schools app, social media, and text alert. We appreciate your patience!
Shelby Eastern Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay on Thursday, January 9th, 2025. No AM (Half-Day) PreK or morning session for our Blue River Career Center students.
As we anticipate some refreezing overnight, please proceed with caution tomorrow during your morning commute.
We appreciate our County Highway Department plow drivers for hitting our most troubled areas again this afternoon. ❄️

Our Transportation Department outdid themselves this year with their annual Holiday Outfit contest! Congratulations to the Grand Prize Winners Stephanie Stough (Morristown - Christmas Tree) and Jessica Scudder (Waldron - The Grinch) and the Runner-Ups Brittany Clemons (Morristown - Rudolph) and Joann Stagge (Waldron - Snoopy Christmas Sweater)! Morristown Bus Driver Jon Nelson also spread the holiday cheer on his bus route, handmaking "Santa, Stop Here!" wooden door hangers for each of the students on his route. Thank-you for all you do for our students! 💛🖤💙🤍
You're invited!

This evening's School Board Meeting will be held at Waldron Elementary School, at 7:00 PM. Please note the change in location.
Due to fog, Shelby Eastern Schools will be operating on a two-hour delay today, Tuesday, October 1st. There will be no AM only PreK. Drive safely!
Good evening, parents. Due to a shortage of Bus Drivers tomorrow morning, Route # 7 will run on a delay. Once another Waldron-area Bus Driver has completed their primary route, they will then run Route # 7 on an approximate 1 hour delay. Students will not be counted tardy or punished because of this alteration. We apologize for this inconvenience and understand if you choose to transport your child yourself. Route # 7 will return to its regular schedule Friday afternoon.
Happy Friday Students, Parents, and Staff
The letter linked below is intended to give our stakeholders some insight to our districts efforts to keep students and staff safe. Please read carefully. We also encourage dialoge between parents and students on this topic as well.
Have a great weekend!

MES Parents,
The power at Morristown Elementary has been restored. We can't wait to see all those smiling faces back in our building on Monday. Have a great weekend!
Good evening Morristown parents,
Crews from Duke Energy, our maintenance staff, and additional electrical contractors have worked into the evening to try to resolve our electrical issues that started this morning.
There is some good news and bad news to share. Duke energy was able to repair the power line from the road to the school earlier this evening. That repair restored power to MHS and all of our systems are back up and running at the Jr. Sr. High School. Junior Senior High School Students will report per usual and bus routes will be running on their regular schedule tomorrow morning.
The unfortunate news is, there is another significant electrical issue within MES that prevents us from restoring power, HVAC systems and much of the lighting within the school. Because this wasn't able to be repaired this evening MES will be on a virtual learning day tomorrow, Friday 8/16. Devices were sent home with 1st through 5th graders and teachers will communicate lessons/activites before 10:00 a.m. on Friday.
Again, we do understand the inconvenience this causes our families and appreciate your patience as we work to resolve the electrical issues.
Summary: MES will be on virtual learning Friday, August 16th. There will be no Boys and Girls Club. Little Yellow Jackets Preschool/Daycare will not be operating.
Morristown Parents,
Unfortunately, the power situation has not been able to be resolved. Duke Energy needs to cut power to the entire campus to try their next repair. At this time we believe it is in the best interest of the safety our students and staff to conduct an early dismissal at 11:45 a.m. We have called our bus drivers and asked them to arrive back at school and prepare for dismissal at 11:45 a.m. this morning. We understand this a huge inconvenicene for our families, but believe it is the best possible option at this juncture. If you are not able to arrange for someone to meet your children at home, please contact our central office where the phones are still working so we can coordinate. That number is 765-544-2246. We will keep any student at school who can't be dropped off at home safely. The car rider line will open as soon as buses are dismissed. Boys and Girls Club will also not be an option this afternoon. Blue river students will still be transported to Blue River this afternoon and returned to MHS at the end of the day. We apologize for the inconvenience and will provide an update on the power outage situation later this afternoon. Thank you for your support.
Good morning MES/MHS families,
Shortly before students arrived this morning a transformer just outside of MHS went down. This has caused a partial power outage at both MES and MHS. The phone system is currently down as well. Duke energy has been notified of the outage and will update us shortly as to when power will be restored. We will provide an update to parents, students, and staff as soon as we know more. Thank you for your patience.
Regards,
