Attention Students and Parents: many of the campus’ building entrances are still affected by some ice, so please be aware that we will be avoiding those entrances as we return to school tomorrow. This may cause your child to enter their building at a different entrance than usual. Staff will be on hand to direct students to alternate entrances. Sharon Ford's students need to enter through the South entrance of her building. Upper elementary students do not use the East entrance to that building, enter by the office doors. The North entrance to the cafeteria is not to be used also, this is the doors on the side closest to the upper elementary. The door into the auditorium that is normally used by Kindergarten and First will not be used. Those students will need to enter through the rock wall on the side of the playground by the high school and go to the door on the side between the 3YO playground and the lower elementary playground. Middle School will not use the north entrance into their building. Please use extreme caution on all parts of campus and avoid any ice. Once again, staff will be out and about to help direct students as to where they need to go.
Final Score: Howe Lady Lions 63, Panama Lady Razorbacks 36
The Lady Lions played with heart, hustle, and sportsmanship. That is The Lady Lion Way, and they represented Howe with pride every step of the way.
A big thank you to our student section, our amazing cheerleaders, the best fans around, and everyone who supported the 94th Annual LCT. Such a special tradition. #TheLadyLionWay #HeartHustleTradition #LCTChampions

Come support our Lions and Lady Lions. Go Howe.
On what is, hopefully, our last snowy learning-from-home day, we are excited to share pages 6 and 7 of our Snow Much to Read challenge featuring even more readers from Howe Public Schools.
From picture books and chapter books to novels, our students and staff have shown that snowy days are still great days for reading. We are so proud of our Howe Lions, Dixon, Braxton, Mrs. Charlotte, Briley, Brinlee, Cooper, Lyndee, Alexzandra, and Kinsley for keeping the pages turning and making the most of these winter days.
Thank you to everyone who has shared photos and reading moments. Your participation has made this challenge something truly special for our school community.

❄️📚 More Snow Much to Read submissions!
We love seeing our readers keep the pages turning, even on snowy days of learning from home. This round includes our Queen of Reading herself, Carol Ann Ford, Director of Library Media. She cannot wait for school to be back in session and for students to visit the libraries to check out even more great books!
These featured readers also include Gwendolyn, Kyrie, and Ellie, and we’ve even included a read-along link for Kyrie's book so others can join in the fun.
Thank you to everyone sharing their Snow Much to Read moments. Keep them coming, Howe Lions! 🦁📖❄️
