Mayflower School District is still without electricity after the planned outage last night. The district is being told it will be later this morning before power is restored. Because of that, Mayflower School District will be taking AMI day #8 today. Buses will return students home once they are made aware of the plan. Our apologies for the late notice and the inconvenience.

Just a reminder, electricity for much of the city of Mayflower is scheduled to be turned off from 9:00 PM tonight until 5:00 AM Friday, March 11th. Please plan accordingly.

If you are interested in becoming a substitute teacher, there is currently additional incentive to do so. Please see the flyer for more details.
