Please help our community and pitch in to put up our Senior Banners at 4 p.m. this Thursday (4.25.24) at the McCurdy Park Community Center. Subway (Chris and Kelly Rowe) is sponsoring the banners this year. If interested in helping, please bring an 8-foot "A" ladder and a partner. Corunna's Rotary Club will have members on hand; it helps put up the banners as one of its many service projects each year. Many hands make for light work!!

Here is an update on tonight's events: - Our Daddy/Daughter dance will go on as planned. - Voluntary varsity practices will be allowed between 3 and 7 p.m. - Tonight's away swim meet has been canceled by opposing teams. - Heavenly Tumbles is canceled for tonight as well.

Police and fire escort into town for our FORD FIELD BOUND football team today! Team is expected to be home around 5:15... Cavalier Nation was in full force today!! GREAT TO BE GOLD!!!

Fellow Cavaliers, I wanted to send a quick update regarding tonight’s Playoff Football game and parking… Due to the amount of rain we received on Wednesday night, we will have limited parking available in our overflow/grass parking areas. We have used CAUTION tape, and marked with signs the areas that are too wet to park in. We will have parking attendants on hand to help direct vehicles. We encourage spectators to utilize parking in the High School parking lots, as well as the parking lot at the tennis courts. The last resort would be to park legally on side streets, the Corunna Central office parking lot, or other legal areas in the downtown area. It’s a nice night for a walk! 😊 Lastly, a reminder the gates will open at 5:30 pm. Tickets are $9 each and must be purchased on GoFan. We look forward to a great night of High School Playoff Football! GO CAVS!!!!!! Respectfully, Mr. Fattal

Good afternoon, We are applying for a grant (31aa) through the state of Michigan that requires we obtain community feedback.

Thanks in advance for helping our district! https://forms.gle/dyJ4NJUe6TZQtENV8 Respectfully, Mr. Fattal

Fellow Cavaliers, We were made aware of an incident last Friday (10.13.23) where one of our students was approached by a white male, approximately in his 60s, while the student was riding his bike around Owosso. The incident was reported to the Owosso Police Department, who shared that there was a similar incident the previous week. The suspect is a white male with gray and balding hair. He has a white beard, and his mustache is unkempt and discolored (yellowing). He is reportedly driving a white pickup truck with a topper (unknown make/model/plate) with damage to the front bumper. If you have any information, safely gather the plate number and report it to the Owosso Police Department (989) 725-0580. Respectfully, Mr. Fattal Superintendent

Fellow Cavaliers, Due to various issues associated with the storm last night, including building power outages and other storm damage, Corunna Public Schools will be closed today, Friday, August 25. Childcare at Louise Peacock will remain open. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Elsa Meyer Elementary will be closed today, Monday, May 22, 2023, due to a failed sewer pump. All other schools in the district will be open. Again, Elsa Meyer Elementary will be closed today, Monday, May 22.

After monitoring the weather, we have decided to delay graduation until 7 p.m. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience. Seniors, please report to the CHS media center at 6 p.m.

Fellow Cavaliers, This morning there was a 0% chance of precipitation at all today. In the last hour, that percentage has changed to 42% at 3 p.m. We will continue monitoring the weather and will contact you again at 1 p.m. to determine if graduation will be at 3 p.m. or 7 p.m. tonight. We appreciate your patience and understanding. You have to love living in Michigan. Respectfully, Mr. Fattal

Fellow Cavaliers, What a day. Certainly, it’s a St. Patrick’s day to remember!!! I can’t even begin to tell you how GREAT our entire team is! Every building stepped up and helped with today’s situation. Our transportation department was incredible! I called Becky Plementosh, and our drivers were on site within minutes to take our our students to the Fairgrounds! All county schools jumped in ready to help. Owosso had two buses ready to assist. The SRESD provided additional radios and offered transportation support if needed – and Dave Schulte (RESD superintendent) was on site the entire time at the Fairgrounds. Our first responders ( Corunna Caledonia Fire Department, Corunna Police Chief Schmitzer, Owosso PD, Rob Herrick from the Shiawassee County Sheriff’s Dept., Central Dispatch, our very own Head of Security Larry LaFramboise and Public Health Nurse Noah Wiggins) were on hand and assisted from the start. All were super supportive. The people at the Fairgrounds were way more accommodating than could have been expected. However, I want to take more than a moment to thank the Elsa Meyer Elementary team, led by the administrative team of Stacy Regan and Jason Beldyga. The entire Elsa Meyer team was fantastic! The entire team was calm! The entire team jumped in to help in any way they could! The entire team was supportive and loving to every single student! They were super team players! In short, the entire Elsa Meyer team was HEROIC!!!! The elements were miserable (I’m having a hard time typing this as I can’t yet feel my fingers – and many were out there without coats, hats, etc., doing what needed to be done). Their efforts were proof-positive to parents and the rest of the community of how unselfish, loving, and dedicated our staff is for their children. Again, I can’t even begin to tell you how impressive each and every one of them was! I am humbled by their efforts. Finally, here’s a quick bullet-point summary of what happened: - The fire alarm system went off at Elsa Meyer. - Students / staff evacuated the building. - The alarm stopped, but the system was still showing an anomaly. - Someone reported they thought they had seen smoke coming from the roof (the fire department has since surmised that it was probably steam from the boiler room…) - The fire department was called. - Communication was shared with families. - We then moved the students to the armory. - When the fire department arrived, they did a complete sweep of the building. We were told it was going to be a very lengthy process. - At that time, we made the decision to transport the students to the Fairgrounds and have parents reunite with their children there. - We received an “all-clear” for Elsa Meyer from the fire department while we were at the Fairgrounds. The fire department said they didn’t see any sign of any fire, smoke, etc., that would be cause for alarm. - Several more updates were made to families. - The building (Elsa Meyer) was open for parents to pick up student belongings from 1 to 3 p.m. All students are accounted for. All students are safe. The district's time spent previously working on our Emergency Operations Plan was time well spent. Thanks again, and have a GREAT weekend! Sincerely, Superintendent John Fattal

Fellow Cavaliers, Due to our ongoing bus driver shortage -- we have an injured driver who cannot drive tomorrow -- students riding the GREEN bus will not be picked up in the AM or dropped off in the PM tomorrow (Friday, March 3). We apologize for the inconvenience. Please contact our offices if you or anyone you know is interested in becoming a permanent or substitute bus driver. Mr. Fattal

Fellow Cavaliers, After the Mother-Son Dance last night (Feb. 28), it was discovered that someone may have accidentally taken the wrong coat home (a green camo jacket). It has items that are desperately needed for the owner in the pockets. Please call (989) 743-6338 if you mistakenly took the jacket. Thanks!
