The schedule for Virtual Academy doesn't change. Meal services will still be free to OPS students Monday through Friday from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm at all OPS schools except Emerson Academy and Preschools.

School officials said that a decision on extending this mode will be made no later than Dec. 3.

Owensboro Public Schools continue to look at making any changes to extracurricular activities, including athletics, due to this recent news.

We're still waiting on the actual cold front to get here. That should arrive around dawn, bringing mainly light rain. The front may also be responsible for perking up a couple bands of heavier rain and lightning east of Evansville for midday Saturday.
