Griggsville – Perry Families:

Just as many other communities are experiencing outbreaks of illness, Griggsville-Perry is too.  We ask that you help reduce the spread of illness by reminding your students of healthy habits. Students should be washing their hands with soap and water, using tissues, and covering their cough. Please remember- If your student is ill, or sent home by the school, they are not allowed to return to school until fever free for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medications.  This also applies to students who vomit. A child should not return to school until they have been symptom free for at least 24 hours. We understand it is an inconvenience to take off work, but it is imperative they are not sent back to school and continue to spread illness. Thank you.

 

We have a HS Track sign up sheet in the office if you are interested in signing up. Please sign up by this Friday.

DATES TO REMEMBER: Since we have returned from Winter Break, we have used three of our five emergency days. We will now be in session on March 28th, April 24th & 25th.
