Drexel R-IV Update
School Closure Announcement
Wednesday, March 18, 2020
RELEASE ISSUED 1:30 PM
March 18, 2020
Dear Drexel Families,
As we continue to monitor the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19), we want you to know that there is no higher priority than the health and safety of our students, employees, and community.
As such, we’ve made the difficult decision to suspend in-person class through Friday, April 3rd. Schooling decisions beyond that date will be made when more information about the spread of the virus is available. Additionally, all district facilities will be closed and all events, activities, practices and contests will be cancelled through April 5th.
At this time school administration and staff are working on ways to provide meals for students during our closure as well as making preparations for remote/on-line learning for our students.
In the very near future, please be looking for an announcement and information for providing meals for our students and providing technology access and how we will deliver remote/on-line learning to our students.
We recognize the hardship this places on our families, and we thank you for your support and patience during these unprecedented times. We’ll do everything we can to help our students and families through these changes. We appreciate your help in reducing the spread of the coronavirus and keeping our community safe.
Respectfully,
Terry Mayfield
Superintendent
