From Appleton City schools

With the number of snow days we have had, we will use Presidents' Day, Feb. 17th, as a make up day. School WILL be in session on Monday 2/17/20. We are aware that this was not on the original calendar as a possible make-up day; however, we feel that this is necessary in order to avoid going to school until the end of May.

It’s coming soon...
