Dragon Weekly

Wouldn't it be great if we could just wish Covid-19 away? Unfortunately, it isn't going anywhere and with that, we must remember that contact tracing still takes place.

Nurse Amy Allen is our district point of contact. Her job is by no means an easy one, especially when guidelines and situations can and usually do change on a dime.

We encourage hand washing, distancing, and masks to be worn.

For questions or to report covid-related symptoms or exposure please contact Point of Contact Nurse Amy Allen at 479-369-2762. She works with the ADH and DESE contact tracing, and parents of the students affected will be notified if students are possible close contacts.
