In an effort to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus within our district we are asking all parents/guardians and employees to notify our designated Point of Contact (Michelle Brown) immediately at 880-3102 when the following occurs:
* Someone in the household has tested positive for COVID-19 or is waiting for results from a test
* Student or employee has been identified as a close contact to a positive person outside of school
The point of contact is available 7 days per week to answer questions and concerns.
Please DO NOT send your student to school while waiting for test results for themselves or other household members. If you will call the point of contact at 880-3102 these absences will be excused.

Parents: Friday August 28th will be a Digital Day for Hector Schools. It will serve as a practice day for students and teachers using technology as the primary method of instruction. We know we have problems to work through and this will give us guidance on where problem areas are in case we have to close school temporarily for Covid. This will also give us time to deep clean our buildings and buses and give our staff a chance to make necessary changes to classrooms and schedules. Teachers and staff will be on campus but students will not. For questions please call HS office 284-3536 or Elem office 284-3586
The weekly meal distribution for virtual students will be today from 1:00-2:00 at the football field parking lot.
