Good morning. It is with a heavy heart and a deep sadness that we report that the Ethan School District has lost a staff member due to a car accident during yesterday's inclement weather. Out of respect for our neighbors, colleagues, and sports cooperative partnership with the Ethan School District the girls basketball game tonight versus Ethan as part of the Hanson Classic has been canceled. We ask that you please keep the Ethan School District and community in your thoughts and prayers.
