Snow Day – Due to heavy snow and dangerous road conditions, Pawnee School will be closed tomorrow, October 26th. Stay safe out there!
I'm so proud of how hard 2nd and 3rd grade worked at home over the last week, and how they just jumped right back into the school routine!
Due to the weather conditions, today's clay target team practice will be postponed.
Attention! Tonight's high school boys basketball shooting practice has been cancelled. We will start Wednesday, October 28th.

At-Home Learning Plans-
As most of you know from the postings that went out last night the district has a positive COVID-19 case and will need to quarantine for a period of time for the safety of our students and staff. The district involved the County Health Department in making the best decision for all involved, and although the exposure was very limited please watch your students for any signs of COVID, get them tested if necessary, and please let the district know if we have any additional cases. The district has done a great job at keeping things disinfected, and encouraged all the recommended procedures for preventing spread. This should help us return to school as early as possible, and we will continue these efforts to prevent outbreaks. Isolated cases are going to happen.
Teachers may have contacted you last night or today regarding assignments to be done at home, which will begin tomorrow the 14th.
We have some things really working in our favor, and I hope you can look for the positives and get through this brief quarantine period.
Tomorrow, Wednesday the 14th, between 2 and 4pm we will open the school for materials pickup by students and parents, and we will also run the bus routes with assignments at this time for those who normally ride the bus. There will be just the ONE pickup and delivery scheduled tomorrow afternoon. Students will receive 1 weeks’ worth of work. If there are no other infections, then all completed work comes back with students when they return to in-person instruction on October 21st.
At this time there are no changes to the conferences schedule. Conferences will be scheduled by phone or virtually for Friday the 23rd.
Concerning end of quarter. Our scheduled end of quarter is in the middle of our quarantine period, so we will do end of quarter grades based on progress as of last Thursday the 8th, so the next quarter will begin with the COVID time out, and we will absorb those grades when we all return.
Thanks, Bret Robinson, Supt.
Mandatory Quarantine
In person school will be closed until further notice. A staff member has tested positive for Covid-19. We will begin at home learning soon. Please keep a close eye on the website for updates. We will send out more information as it becomes available.
