We found out that we had a student at our junior high test positive for COVID. Parents of students affected have been notified, and the students will be quarantined. There is strong evidence that the student contracted it from someone outside of school. Again, I appreciate the understanding of all parents involved. We continue to work with the state health department and take the required actions. Our grab and go meals are available to any families who are quarantined. We ask that parents reserve meals for the following day at the following link https://forms.gle/XJfEKeA2QisWqxH26 Meals ordered must be picked up outside the North Campus Cafeteria from 10:00am-10:15am, Monday-Thursdays and 10:00am-11:00am on Fridays or any school-wide distance learning days. Meals will consist of both a breakfast and a lunch. These meals are free until further notice.
Parents, please make sure your child boards the bus or arrives at school with a mask. Because of the close space, masks are required to be worn at all times on the bus.
