Unfortunately, due to a number of roads being closed in our district because of continued flooding, we would not be able to bring all of our students in for the first day of school. With that in mind, we are postponing the first day until Wednesday, August 19th. That means today, Tuesday, August 18, all Federal Hocking Schools are closed.
In the interest of safety and caution, we are going to start school tomorrow, August 18th, on a two hour delay.
