Please make note!! The USJ Trivia Night at Batter Up is being RESCHEDULED to Wednesday, November 9th due to our school closure this week.

We are “RED”dy to say No to Drugs! #redribbonweek

Due to the large number of absences (over 400 district wide) , most of which are due to flu positives, ALL Demopolis City schools will operate virtually on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week (Oct. 25 - 26th). Students will be bringing home a packet of work that should be returned on Thursday.
Please take all precautions to help stop the spread of any sickness and remember not to send your child back to school until he or she has been fever free for 24 hours.
