Carl Junction schools canceled for rest of the week due to illness

(From the Carl Junction School District)

An unusually large number (attendance at 80 percent or less) of students in our Kindergarten/1st grade building are exhibiting symptoms of a stomach illness (vomiting and diarrhea).

In attempt to proactively contain the spread to other students, the district has decided to cancel school for all students for Thursday, March 8 and Friday, March 9. This will give us an opportunity to disinfect our buildings and buses. The Jasper County Department of Health is helping us assess and evaluate the situation.

We will post more information as it is received. School will dismiss normally today but if you instead choose to pick up your child please call your their building's school office to make those arrangements.

Your child's health and safety is our number one priority, thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

(A call and email will be sent to parents as well)
