We have worked with MDH to identify those who were in close contact with the person who tested positive for COVID-19, and no close contacts have been identified in our school community.

Nevaeh was chosen for October Student of the Month! Nevaeh’s teacher, Mrs. Skersick says, “Nevaeh has been an outstanding student. She comes to google meets prepared and ready to work. She is very patient and kind, always an outstanding friend. She sticks around after google meets just to talk to her friends and even the teacher. She makes sure all her assignments are turned in, in a timely manner. Nevaeh makes sure that when she needs help she will patiently wait and ask for it. I am so grateful to have Nevaeh as part of my class this year. Keep up the great work Nevaeh, and share all the kindness that you have to offer.”
Nevaeh is most thankful for her family because they are always there for her when she needs them. Nevaeh’s favorite part of school is spending time with friends. Her and her friends like to play games like hide and seek and tag. Nevaeh likes reading. Her favorites are the Owl Diary series. Her favorite food is noodle soup.
Nevaeh, you are such a hard worker and kind child! Keep working so hard!
Helpline days are available Mon-Thursday.
