If your child’s classroom or program is affected by any DOH-identified cases, a separate notice will be sent to you as soon as we are aware of it.  This will be in addition to—and usually earlier than– this weekly report.

Free Flu Vaccine Clinic: Our community will host a free flu vaccination clinic on Tuesday, October 13 from 3-7 p.m. at the Corn Palace.  All children, 6-months through 18 years of age and college age adults are eligible.  Getting your flu shot is especially important this year, given the continuing COVID-19 situation.

In observance of Native American Day, there will be no school on Monday, October 12.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Sincerely,

Joseph Graves, Superintendent of Schools
