If schools are to be cancelled, parents will be notified by radio announcements on local stations. In cases where a decision cannot be reached by 7 a.m., a one hour delay will be announced. A further announcement indicating the starting time, or cancellation, will take place by 8 a.m. Under some circumstances, it may be necessary to close schools during the school day. Parents are asked to make the necessary arrangements for your son or daughter should this type of closure occur.
If extreme weather conditions might occur unexpectedly, students may be required to remain at school beyond their normal dismissal time unless picked up by a parent or designate. Announcements will be made on all radio stations if this occurs.

www.careercruising.com) is a new web based career exploration program for grades 7 - 12. We encourage parents to use this resource with their sons/daughters at home. Simply go to the website and enter the username and password for Three Oaks (Three Oaks, Axemen). Students must first contact Mrs. Reeves, Mr. Donovan or Mrs. Keough to acquire a personal log in and password to access their personal profile.
Career Cruising has been designed with one goal in mind: To help students plan their futures. Some of the assessment tools include: matching interests and skills to careers, descriptions of hundreds of careers, interviews of people in careers, options for searching, links between education and careers, information on post secondary education and other options.
With these type of assessment tools, profiles, and post secondary information, parents and students can easily move through the career exploration and planning process.
