Greenview Community School District

We wish all those celebrating a Happy Hanukkah!

With the COVID-19 cases increasing around Menard County, tomorrow December 11th will be the last in person day of instruction for the the semester. We are very sorry but we are struggling to staff the school safely and are concerned about cases we are seeing in the school community. Students will be working remotely next week, teachers will be in contact with families about the set up. We will have food delivery next week for students. We will use the list we had last week. We plan to make tomorrow festive and happy as possible for the students. Students may wear Christmas or holiday gear to school tomorrow. We are very proud of all the hard work our students have done this semester. We thank our staff for such a great job keeping students here as much as possible. If you have questions please feel free to email me at rheavner@greenviewschools.org or call school. We appreciate the great support and encouragement over the last few months! -Mr. Heavner

This evening we were made aware a member of our school community tested positive for COVID-19. The staff conducted an investigation and we have found that no individual was at a higher risk from this person. School will continue as normal this week. We appreciate everyone working together. We thank the families and staff for great communication and quickly getting a handle on this situation. PLEASE remember if any family member has symptoms or has been exposed please stay home. If you have questions or concerns please email rheavner@greenviewschools.org Please remember to wash your hands, social distancing and wear a mask! We appreciate all the hard worn everyone is doing!
