We have moved to the portable classrooms this. Demolition of the Short Building and new construction will begin soon. Please be flexible as things change. We will work to make things the best that we possibly can. If there are issues at any point that you are concerned about, please do not hesitate to reach out to our front office.

Please remember the importance of your child/children being at school each day! Make every effort to schedule appointments when school is out or in the afternoons.

The school needs documentation (parent note or doctor note) to be able to excuse absences. Please know that 3 tardies is equivalent to 1 unexcused absence. If we do not receive the required note(s), these days will remain unexcused.

Please remember that five (5) days of unexcused absences constitute truancy, and the White County School System is required by law to address truancy. You may be able to prevent a court appearance by scheduling a meeting or contacting the school to discuss what to do next.

Please keep your student home for the following reasons:

• Fever of 100.0 degrees or higher in the past 24 hours (must be fever free without Tylenol or Motrin for 24 hours before returning to school).

• Vomiting or diarrhea in the past 24 hours (no episodes of vomiting or diarrhea in 24 hours before returning to school)

• Known exposure to Covid and now experiencing Covid symptoms (fever, cough, chills, headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or body aches)
• Unexplained rash.

When in doubt, keep them out. We cannot diagnose or treat your child at school for illnesses. Please keep your child home if he or she is sick and see your primary care provider.

Covid PCR testing is available at each school in White County. Please contact your school nurse if you wish for your child to be tested when sick.

PreK will now pick up and drop off in a separate line new the portable classroom. Both lines can be used for parent pick up in the afternoons.

When dropping off your student each morning, please do not get out of the car. This causes a disruption to the flow of traffic. We have parents that are trying to make it to work in time. If you wish to walk your child to the front door, you must park in the parking lot and walk them.
