Due to the weather, the basketball games tomorrow (12/21/2022) will be played at Mount Vernon Christian instead of in Concrete. The times will be the same as originally scheduled.
The basketball games that are scheduled to be played at Mount Vernon Christian on January 17, 2023 will be moved to Concrete.
Every winter, bad weather–snow, slush, freezing temperatures or even heavy rains –can present challenges to getting students to school. So do the illnesses such as colds, flu, fevers and earaches that often come with the winter months.
What can families do?
Snow Information
November 29th 2022
Our district is expected to see trace amounts to several inches of snow overnight. The superintendent and our transportation department will be driving routes starting at 3:00am.
We will post on our website and Facebook by 5:30am if we decide to do a two-hour late start. A School Messenger announcement will be made to staff and parents by 6:00am if we plan to alter our schedule which is set for a one-hour late start tomorrow. No announcement means school will start on the regular one-hour late start. Updates will also be sent to radio and TV stations.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we try to make decisions for our large geographical district. While you may not have snow at your house, others may have significant snowfall.
Special advance thanks to our bus drivers as they navigate roads with our children. We also thank our maintenance crew as they keep our sidewalks and parking lots cleared during expected weather events. Your efforts are seen and appreciated.
Please check the website for snow routes as we may be unable to utilize our regular routes if we receive too much snow.

Public Announcement Town of Concrete Water
The Town of Concrete is under a boil water requirement until it is determined by the Washington Health Department to be free of contaminants. The Concrete School District has developed a plan and is well prepared for making certain student and staff safety is our priority. We will have all faucets and drinking fountains turned off until notified by the Health Department that we are clear to reopen them. We have purchased bottled water for all our sites and it will be readily available to everyone. Once we receive notice the system is free of contaminants all facilities will be thoroughly flushed prior to being used by students or staff. Our food service team has also developed plans to ensure safe preparation and serving of food is adhered to. Thank you to all our staff who have made certain the safety of our students and staff are paramount. We will send notice as soon as we are off the current water restrictions.
Respectfully
Wayne Barrett
Superintendent
Concrete School District
