It's Board Clerk Appreciation Day and we have the very best!
Board clerks play a vital role in keeping districts running smoothly by supporting board operations and ensuring everything stays organized. Often working behind the scenes, they are the quiet anchors of a district—maintaining accurate records, preparing meeting materials, and making sure processes run seamlessly from month to month. Their organization, expertise, and steady leadership make a tremendous difference for local boards and the school communities they serve.
Thank you, Diana Thornton! We appreciate you!

Dear Students, Families, Staff, and Community Members,
Due to adverse weather conditions and low wind chill values forecasted for our area, all schools in the district will be closed on Monday (January 26, 2026).
The safety of our students, staff, and families is always our top priority. After careful review of current conditions and weather projections, we determined that operating schools would pose unnecessary risk, particularly during morning transportation and outdoor exposure.
Information regarding athletics and activities will be communicated as early as possible tomorrow, if not sooner. Thank you for your cooperation and continued support.
Stay warm!

The Norwich Eagles captured the 54 Classic tournament championship, marking a significant milestone for the Norwich High School men’s basketball program. At 26 years old and in his sixth year as head coach, Nicholas Kyle attained his 100th career win, becoming one of the youngest coaches in Kansas to achieve this accomplishment. Under his direction, Norwich earned a state tournament appearance in 2022 - the school’s first in 26 years. With a 12–3 record this season, the Eagles continue to show steady growth and build upon the foundation established in recent years.
Congratulations Coach Kyle and Team!
