Dear Parents,
Kindergarten and First Grade will be having a pick up day today (1/19) 1pm-3pm and tomorrow (1/20) from 8am-3pm at Highland Elementary. Kindergarten will be getting work packets and First Grade will get work packets and Chromebooks. If you are unable to come during these hours, please reach out to your child's teacher as soon possible. Please know that we have not had confirmation of how long this distance learning will last. We hope to be back later this week, but in the event of an extended shut-down these packets are necessary.
Thanks for all you do!
Reminder to those planning on attending the Varsity boys game tonight 1/19 at the Palmyra Middle School Gym:
1. No one will be allowed in before 630

Community wifi/tutoring locations WILL be available during this remote learning time. Please email ahead to make sure there is enough space. Masks are required.
LCC1 will be forced back into Distance Learning for a minimum of 2 days, but in all honesty, it will likely be more like a week+. We lost a few more staff members today and tonight from COVID-19 sickness and/or quarantine. Updated timeline will be announced in next day or two.
Bus 22 Cindy Adam’s afternoon bus route will have to be run late today due to a driver shortage. Parents may pick their children up at school if they do not want them to be held late at school. Thank you for your patience.

We have just recently learned of a positive student case at the elementary last Wed & Thur. Contact tracing is currently underway, as well as efforts to contact those that will be quarantined.
Another reminder: 7th-12th grade remains in Hybrid until a formal announcement is made otherwise. HES is still 5 days per week.
Reminder that tomorrow (1/18/21) is a school day (Make-up snow day #1). Currently, this will have all necessary makeup days covered after tomorrow.
The games scheduled for today 1/15/21 at Macon have been moved to Saturday 1/16/21. Girls start at 5pm. Spectators should use the green tickets provided by the conference. GO COUGARS!!
Highland Votech students will not travel to Hannibal Votech today due to road conditions and continued snow forecast throughout the day.
Highland will use an AMI day today, which means that school is closed, but it is still counted as an attendance day. No makeup day, but students will have assignments from teacher to complete for their attendance to be counted! Please check school emails/Google Classrooms.
