Ingram Families,
Late this evening a power supply issue was discovered at J.R. Ingram. Our maintenance department is working closely with Duke Energy to fix the issue but power will not be restored prior to the start of school tomorrow. Due to this ongoing power supply issue impacting the school, J.R. Ingram will be closed to students and staff on Thursday, April 4.
Staff will be provided more guidance from Principal Brewer.

Bus 16 has experienced some mechanical issues and therefore the route will be delayed by at least 30 minutes. Another bus is on the way and will continue the route. Check out the status of the bus and its location in the Here Comes the Bus App.
