Please make arrangements to get material picked up in a timely manner. December 4th will be a virtual half day for all students. The Health Officer for Iowa County shared the following earlier this week: “As the COVID situation in Wisconsin worsens and hospitals continue to surge to their limits, Wisconsin Hospital Association and the Stop the COVID Spread! Coalition released a somber ad and the attached press release yesterday.” The ad can be viewed here and the press release is linked here. Please consider staying at home and not gathering with anyone outside of immediate family. The spread of COVID-19 is rapidly increasing because people are contagious without symptoms. We have many families in our district with one or more members who are positive. If you or your family are quarantined, please follow protocols to prevent the spreading of the virus. Notify the school if your child is diagnosed with COVID-19 or is a close contact to someone who was diagnosed with COVID-19. Encourage good habits: frequent handwashing, covering coughs and sneezes, use of face coverings in public, and staying home as much as possible. If a parent or any household member has been tested for COVID and are waiting for results, remain at home along with all family members until results are back. If positive, the health department will instruct you and household members on isolation and quarantine dates. Thank you, Josh Tarrell Principal

We would like to take a moment and thank all Veterans for their sacrifices.
