Hello Wildcats, Verona school district will be closing effective March 17th through April 2nd at the recommendation of the Berry Lawrence Health department and in conjunction with the Department of Education. District personnel will reevaluate the situation on April 2nd. We take this step with heavy hearts, but must take proper steps to ensure the safety and well being of our students and staff. We will be reviewing options to provide "Grab and Go" meals; more details will follow tomorrow. The expectation from the state level is the district continue to reach our students in an educational manner. Elementary students will come home with some items to work on, along with staff using on-line sources to reach students. Please be patient as we develop this plan. All grade level staff will meet tomorrow to cement the on-line educational interaction that we hope to achieve. During this unprecedented time we find ourselves, we will focus on the positive that we are doing our best to keep our Wildcat family safe. School will dismiss today March 16th at 3:45, like normal.
Corona Virus. Couple suggestions for parents.
Provide a water bottle for your student so we limit use of water fountains. Please keep your student home when he/she is sick. Information is available at this CDC link https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/index.html
We do have a few extra crew neck sweatshirts left from the baseball fundraiser. I'll sell these at $25 (original $30) to get rid of them! Sizes left are:
