With the current power outage affecting Island City Elementary, phones are down but school is operating as close to normal as possible. Dismissal will be at 2:35 PM, as normal. Families picking up students are asked to park and pick up students from the west Soccer Field at the normally scheduled time. Please avoid the bus area as we want to ensure everyone's safety. OTEC indicates this issue should be resolved by Thursday morning. Thank you for your patience!
