Good afternoon, CES Parents/Guardians:
Chillicothe R-2 School District will not be in session on Tuesday, February 9, 2021, due to road conditions and extreme wind chills.
We will be implementing an Alternative Methods of Instruction (AMI) Day so that your child may learn at home. Please go to tinyurl.com/CESChoiceBoardFeb9 to access the Chillicothe Elementary School Choice Board for February 9th.
As a reminder, the Alternative Methods of Instruction (AMI) Day provides the opportunity for your child to engage in learning at home that counts toward your child's attendance for the day. For your convenience, I have attached the Chillicothe R-2 Q&A regarding AMI to provide you with more information on the purpose of AMI Days. tinyurl.com/CR2AMIDays
Thank you for your cooperation!
Stay safe and warm!
Dr. Watkins

Reminder: Chillicothe R-2 School District will not be in session on Monday, February 8th due to a teacher professional development day in the original school calendar.

In case you are looking for a few Chiefs fans . . .
