School Closing Update 3/25/2020

Good Evening,

Will school be closed the remainder of the year? Today the Oklahoma State School Board voted to keep school buildings closed for the remainder of the school year. Schools have been given orders to make “continuous learning plans.” We will release information for staff and students soon.

Activities – As of today, all school activities are cancelled. Schools facilities are closed to all non- essential staff. If parents or staff need items, they need to contact your school site and make arrangements for pick-up. We will put out future guidance in our continuous learning plan.

Students – This situation is very difficult for our students. The time lost at school with your peers, field trips lost, and class activities cannot be replaced. For our seniors and your parents, this is particularly a difficult time. We will work to make a Graduation celebration happen when CDC guidance on gathering is lifted.

Child Nutrition - We will continue to provide breakfast and lunch, Monday-Friday, from 9:30 to 11:30. Please come and pick up food. By doing this you help our school.

This situation is unprecedented and we are working to provide an unprecedented response. We appreciate your support. We will release our continuous learning plan soon.

Thank you for your continued support,

Erik Puckett – “GO Hornets!”
Supt.
Hilldale Public Schools
