We have a quick update for you on the fiber outage. Spectrum has now restored service to all sites. Phone lines should be working at all of our schools, as well as all other internet services. Thank you again for your patience. Have a great weekend!
Dear Tiger Families,

Please note: Phones ARE working at Cape Central Middle School, Terry W. Kitchen Central Junior High, and Cape Central Academy.
We apologize for any inconvenience the outages caused at our other buildings. Thank you for your time and continued support of Cape Girardeau Public Schools.
