We would like to express a HUGE Thank You to Women's Life Vassar #857 for their amazing donation to our school district! This wonderful group has donated 60+ drawstring bags loaded with a towel, washcloth, shampoo, deodorant, comb, toothbrush and toothpaste for students in need! Not only was this gracious enough, but they also donated socks, feminine hygiene products, lice kits, Ibuprofen and Tylenol for our school nurse to hand out when needed. We are so thankful to this group, they are a true blessing not only to our school but also to our community!

Last night the Board of Education made changes to the districts existing COVID policy. This change is for positive cases only.
Positive individuals can now choose between the following two options:
-Isolate at home for 5 days (day "0" is day symptoms begin or day test was taken for those who do not have symptoms); and
-If symptoms have improved or you continue to have no symptoms, return to school, while wearing a well-fitted mask, for days 6-10; or
-Stay home for 10 days if unwilling/unable to wear a mask.
*Any student/staff that chooses to return on day 6 and do not follow mask guidelines will be sent home.
We will continue to offer the three options for contact traced individuals: Test-to-Stay (three tests provided within a seven-day period), Test to Return ( isolate at home, test on day 7 to return), and 10-day quarantine (no testing required).
