Homecoming is now (tentatively) scheduled for Thursday, December 10. The Jr. High ceremony will take place at 4:00 p.m. in the gym followed by the Sr. High ceremony at 7:00.
Due to social distancing guidelines this event will not be open to the public. Each member of the homecoming court will receive 5 tickets. Both ceremonies will be livestreamed.

•Someone in the household has been identified as a Close Contact to a positive case of COVID-19 and is requiring quarantine and/or recommended to be tested for COVID-19.
•Student attending on-site and employees who are being tested for COVID-19. If symptomatic, student/staff should remain in quarantine pending results of their COVID-19 test.

I know with Covid, there are lots of questions and whys when it comes to quarantining students and staff. I have two binders full and about 40 emails of protocols, guidelines and laws. Every case I get, I go over guidelines multiple times to make sure every decision I make is right and fair. If you have a question about anything such as why is my child quarantined but not this student, why is the sibling allowed to continue to come, or any other question you might have, please feel free to call me, text me or send me a message on social media. I’ll answer all questions to the best of my ability. Our main goal is to keep Kirby School District open for on campus learning as long as we can. Thanks~ Nurse Alissa

FALL PICTURE ORDERS: There seemed to be some confusion with picture orders, so I am going to have another order date. This fall, all proofs are digital. If you have an elementary child their teacher sent you an email at the end of September to the email you provided when school started. It included the proof viewing link and order form link and all my contact information. If you have a 7th-11th grader the email link was sent to their school email address to share with parents. If you can’t retrieve those emails, you can email me directly and I will send you all the info. Please don't contact school as they will just have to refer you to me. The new deadline will be Thursday November 5th. My email for pictures is ktmdphotos@gmail.com. Please include the child's name, grade (+ teacher if in elementary). Thanks, Kelly
ATTENTION PLEASE!
