REMINDER: Miles for Smiles Mobile Unit will be onsite this Thursday, Friday, and next Monday for check ups and cleanings, as well other services, as needed. Please turn in or request a new consent form before Oct. 15th, this Thursday if you would like your child to be seen.
This afternoon we had a substitute on Mr.Steve’s bus route on 32 highway. There was a need to stop quickly because of a safety issue with an elementary child. There was a dump truck behind the bus who also had to stop quickly. The dump truck stopped to the side of the bus. There was NO contact between the vehicles. The child is fine. It was a scary situation that your child could come home and tell you. I wanted you, the parents to know what happened.

Two announcements today. First, the Junior High Girls Basketball game scheduled for today has been canceled and will not be re-scheduled. Secondly, the home Softball game scheduled with Hermitage for today has been postponed and is re-scheduled for Wednesday at 5 pm.
Today we have added 1 positive for COVID and identified 12 students for exposure in the Junior High. IF YOU DO NOT GET A PHONE CALL YOUR CHILD WAS NOT INCLUDING IN THE EXPOSURE which means they were not less than 6 feet for over 15 mins. On Friday we had a count of two students who tested positive in 9th and 11th grades and 15 in quarantine . We do NOT see a wide spread but the contact tracing is a challenge. I would recommend all parents should monitor for symptoms of COVID each day. I know it is hare to tell the difference between allergies and COVID at this time of year.
The following games are canceled for this week. Softball for Monday, Tuesday and Hermitage Tournament Friday and Saturday. Junior High Girls and Boys Basketball Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday have been canceled. Rescheduling information will be posted when available.
The softball game versus Montrose scheduled for this evening (Friday) has been canceled. Re-scheduling information will be published as it is determined.
School picture day is tomorrow, Tuesday, September 22. All students in preschool-12 grade will be photographed for the yearbook. If you are purchasing a picture packet, please bring your order form with correct change or a check to school. Vo-tech students must be photographed BEFORE getting on the bus for vo-tech that morning. The photographer will be in the multipurpose room.
Fall sport pictures will be taken also tomorrow after school for junior high girls' and boys' basketball, junior high cheerleaders, softball and track. Make sure you have your uniform ready to go.
Just a reminder that packet materials for seventh and eighth grades for Monday and Tuesday will be going out today on the bus routes. If someone cannot meet the bus they can be picked up in the high school office or can be sent with a sibling upon notification to do such. Last week's materials can be sent back on the bus, dropped off at the office, or brought back Wednesday if your student is returning that day. If a student was in quarantine from the Health Department the return date is prescribed by that agency and the appropriate amount of materials will be sent. Their first week materials are due back by Wednesday.
