Here are updated brackets for the Oak Ridge Tournament. Also, the Oak Ridge FFA/ FCCLA are having a fish fry today in the HS Gym. All you can buffet style fish fry with all the fixins for $15. No pets are allowed at their fields unless they are service animals.
No baseball or softball games today. Updated brackets will be posted once we get them.
We will be back in school tomorrow. If your family was displaced and your child can't make it to school, please just contact the office. We understand. If your family is impacted by flood waters (Chris Williams's route), please let us know. We will follow this up with a Facebook post.
We have food but no milk. That should be delivered tomorrow. Crews are working hard to get nails out of the roadways. And we are praying for some relief with flood waters on side roads. If everything goes right in the next 24 hours, we could have school Wednesday.
We are waiting on the food truck (all of our food was spoiled and/or donated). We need some of the flooding to go back down. And we need to get the debris/nails out of the road. So no school tomorrow.
Barring any unforeseen circumstance, we anticipate having the community of Delta back on by 7:30 this evening. Some of the power is already starting to come on. It will come back on very slowly a few businesses/homes at a time.
Residents affected by the Delta Tornado are encouraged to visit the Community Center on Sunday, April 6th from 2:30-5:30p to report recovery needs.
Emergency Alert
National Weather Service: A FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY is in effect for this area until 3:00 AM CDT. This is an extremely dangerous and life-threatening situation. Do not attempt to travel unless you are fleeing an area subject to flooding or under an evacuation order.
Very strong winds, hail, and a possible tornado coming towards Delta. Everybody stay alert. Be safe.
Tornado headed towards Delta. Seek shelter immediately.
1. They're resting the siren. If you hear it that's all it is. A test.
2. FEMA said if you set debris by the road and separate metal and wood they'll come by and remove the debris.
We will be dismissing at Noon today in an abundance of caution. We want to give our families time to prepare for the storms. The FEMA Building will remain open throughout the day and all night. If you need a place to stay safe, by all means, come to the FEMA Building.
Here are the brackets for the Oak Ridge Baseball and Softball Tournaments scheduled for next week.
Baseball has been cancelled for today, 3/31 and rescheduled to 4/14 at 4:30
The FEMA Building is open. If the weather gets bad everybody please find a safe place.
Here are the dress up days leading up to prom next Saturday:
Today's baseball game shows 4:00 on the schedule but actually starts at 4:30.
The Delta R-V 6th & 7th graders went to the Cape airport to give a great sendoff for the Honor Flight. . An Honor Flight is conducted by non-profit organizations dedicated to transporting as many United States military veterans as possible to see the memorials of the respective war they fought in Washington, DC, at no cost to the veterans.
Good news for parents: the water is on, so we will be in school the rest of the day. Bad news for kids: you have to go back to class after lunch! Sorry for the false alarm, but we wanted to prepare parents for the worst case scenario if the water didn't come back on.
We don't have water in either building. We've spoken with city officials and they are trying to get it back on. If they get it back on we will stay in school. If they can't, we will send out another message. We just want parents to be aware of what is going on.
