He says, “While this is certainly an unusual occurrence, as we assessed our facilities

\nbelieve that it is in the best interest of our students and the educational
\nenvironment to operate on the shortened schedule for the duration of this

\nair-conditioning, it was not feasible to make a school closure decision on a

\nand allow for a full day of instruction, we will notify you through the calling system.\u00a0
\nOur staff will utilize this additional time for teaming time and other

\nJMS?”, originally scheduled for Tuesday, August 27, 2013\u00a0has been postponed to

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) – Activists in Syria say U.N. inspectors have spent about three hours at a makeshift hospital in one of the areas near Damascus that was hit by what the opposition says was a chemical weapons attack by government forces last week. The inspectors met with doctors and took samples from victims before heading to Damascus. Earlier Monday, one of their vehicles was hit by sniper fire. The government says rebel forces were responsible, while the rebels blame a pro-government militia.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) – Jurors in Texas who’ll decide whether Army Maj. Nidal Hasan will live or die have been hearing testimony Monday from victims and their families — including a soldier who’d been expected to die after being shot in the head. Staff Sgt. Patrick Ziegler testified that his cognitive level is about the same as a 10th or 11th grader, and that he has trouble caring for his 10-month-old son. Most of the testimony will come from widows, mothers, children and siblings of the 13 people who were killed.\u00a0
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 CHICAGO (AP) – No incidents of trouble have been reported Monday, the first day of school in Chicago. Thousands of children whose schools were shut down last spring walked to new ones Monday under the watchful eye of police officers and newly-hired safety guards. They were there to provide protection as the kids crossed unfamiliar streets — including some gang boundaries. Parents and grandparents say they’re concerned that today’s show of force won’t protect the children in the weeks and months to come.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – Students throughout the Midwest are getting out of school early this week because of sweltering temperatures and a lack of air conditioning in some classrooms. Schools in Nebraska, Iowa, the Dakotas and Illinois made plans to release children in the early afternoon, before temperatures reached expected highs – nearly 100 degrees in much of the central United States. Many schools have air conditioning systems that don’t extend throughout the entire building. The National Weather Service says this kind of prolonged heat wave is unusual for this time of year, but not unprecedented.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama has bestowed the Medal of Honor on Army Staff Sgt. Ty Carter. He’s a veteran of the war in Afghanistan who risked his life to save an injured soldier and to resupply ammunition to his comrades during intense fighting in a remote mountain outpost. Obama says Carter “displayed the essence of true heroism.”
