**College for Kids Transportation Update:
I was contacted this morning by Wethersfield's principal regarding transportation to College for Kids. Kewanee sustained a great deal of damage and fallen trees during last night's storm. As a result, Wethersfield will not be sending a bus for transportation to today's session of College for Kids. Transportation for Tuesday 7-16-24 will be up to individual families from Galva and Wethersfield. Hopefully, Wednesday will see a return to normal transportation plans. Again, Tuesday transportation will be at the discretion of individual families if your child plans to attend today's College for Kids sessions. Thank you for your understanding.
