Milk Message
Our free meal program has been extended through December 31, 2020, as provided by the United States Department of Agriculture. All students enrolled in the school district — regardless of the learning model — can receive free breakfast and lunch every day. It is possible that the program could end before December 31 if the funding is depleted.
Milk is included in the price of a breakfast and lunch meal. Students who take milk only at meals will be charged $0.50 per carton. Extra milks are not allowed at this time. Please know that if your child is bringing lunch from home and ordering milk they will be charged $.50.

Mask Wear & Care
We have had volunteers making masks for students, and this is greatly appreciated! We use these with students from time to time. Masks are readily available now more than in March, so they are easier to find. Let us know if this is a problem for you.

Roundabout Information-home stretch!
We are on the home stretch of the construction of the new roundabout at the intersection of Highway 246 (Division Street) and Jefferson Parkway. The current timeline has the project concluding on October 23rd. The roundabout is paved, and they are completing the additional work such as electrical, seeding, hydro-mulching, striping, and signage.
We have opened the barricades in the afternoon to let parents through to Hwy 246, but there is no entry from Hwy 246. Thank you for all your patience!!
