There is a new selection of FREE books that are out in front of the Elem. School! You are welcome to help yourself. Happy reading!

Graduation 2020 It is official! Our senior class will be graduating on Saturday, June 13, 2020 at 1:00 PM. The ceremony will consist of a “Drive-In” type of ceremony to be held in the school parking lot. Seniors will each have two cars filled with family members to witness the ceremony, and an FM system will be available. Unfortunately, we have to limit the event to immediate family only. We were charged with developing a plan for commencement which met all county and state health mandates. For the community however, we will have the entire ceremony recorded and available for viewing by the end of June. We will post the video on our district website for all to see. Senior Cruise/Gift Bins Community members are invited to come out and celebrate our seniors as they “cruise” down main street on Friday, June 12 at 6:00 pm. Senior Students will be in their uniquely decorated cars and “make the loop”. We hope you can come downtown and show our 18 senior students your support and congratulations on their graduation. We will have a Gift Bin for each senior at graduation. If you would like to drop off a card, gift, or words of encouragement to one of our super students, please write the name on the item and drop it off at the high school office between 8:00-3:00 Monday through Thursday. We will make sure they are placed in the appropriate bin.

Hello Seniors and families, I know this is a challenging and frustrating time for you. We want you to know we support you, and we are moving forward with graduation. We had another graduation planning meeting today, I consulted with to the department of health, the Emergency Management office and other county entities. We will be presenting our proposed plan to the school board next Wednesday for their review, and I hope to hear any comments or recommendations from the health department by tomorrow. By next Thursday, we should have the plan ready to share with you all. Thank you again for your patience. We know this is hard to wait, and it has been challenging for all of us. Also, please know we are doing the best we can to have the best graduation for our students within the guidelines we are required to follow. Please call or email me next week if you have any concerns or questions. I'm happy to work with each of you. Happy Memorial Day Principal G 😁

Beginning next week we will be sending homework home to every student on a weekly basis (and collecting it weekly). The final logistics are still being worked out, but there will be multiple delivery options (meal routes, pick up, delivery by school personnel). Thank you for your patience as we work through this. I'm sure there will be many questions. We will be sending a letter to every parent/guardian towards the end of the week with specific information.

Spring Break is April 6 - April 10, 2020. School offices will be closed and no food services will be offered during this time. Stay safe and enjoy these sunny days!

While the Republic School District does not offer traffic safety at this time, Yusuf Quidwai is willing to offer a class this spring/early summer here if there is enough interest.
