Here is our HS boys basketball schedule at Duquoin this week!

As we begin our drive to the end of the first semester on Tuesday, December 20, we have an update on the cause of our smoke issue at CJHS last week. Our staff and contractors traced the problem to a one year old Variable Air Volume (VAV) box in our HVAC system. A bit of insulation came unglued and got close to the heating element. This caused the brief smoke issue. As we told the student last Tuesday, they did a great job of evacuating the building in a safe and orderly manner. We welcome everyone back to school on Monday, November 28.
Congrats to Laela Kohzadi on making All South for Volleyball! Great Job Laela! #GoRedbirds!

For parents of Central Junior High School Students - due to a smoke issue with our ventilation system, Junior High School students will be dismissed to their parents. Junior high parents may pick up their students at Frankfort Intermediate School Office this morning. All other schools will be in session in West Frankfort through our normal early dismissal schedule for today. All students are safe. We thank everyone for their understanding.
We will be contacting as many parents as we can by phone as well, however our software for making an all call is down. Central students do not have to be picked up. The students who are not picked up will remain at FIS for the day.
Attention! We have the fire department at Central over an issue. They are working on the issue. In the mean time all Central students have been evacuated to FIS Gymnasium.
