This is a reminder that there will be no school meals served on Friday, April 10. Additionally, we are implementing a few new protocols to limit our staff and community exposure while continuing to provide fresh meals. Starting next week and moving forward, the Town Meals and Kitchen Pick-Up Meals will be offered only on Tuesday (3 meals) and Friday (2 meals). Rural meals will continue to be delivered on Mondays and Thursdays with no changes. We apologize for the changes and hope to be able to maintain this schedule for the duration of the closure.
We will have our Learning Packet Drop-Off and Pick-Up on Tuesday, April 14. from 1-6pm. Once again, SES students will drop off and pick up materials on the west side of SES, and SMS/SHS students will drop off and pick up items at the Commons.
We hope that you are staying safe and healthy. We miss our kids and look forward to the time when we can see them again. Please continue to do your best, but do not hesitate to reach out to teachers with questions. Thanks for your continued support of Sullivan Schools!

Monday morning message from SES staff!!
Just a reminder that Rural Meals are being delivered today. In an effort to maintain the health of our staff and community, our personnel will be leaving meals by mailboxes, sidewalks, or other landmarks, as opposed to handing to individuals. We wish we could be giving hugs, high fives, and handshakes, but we want everyone to be safe!

A message from Sullivan School Superintendent, Ted Walk, to parents, community, and staff: With the new development of confirmed COVID-19 cases in our region, Sullivan Schools will not have student attendance on Monday, March 16th. We understand the additional hardship this causes for our students, families, and community, and this was a difficult decision. Teachers and staff will have an Institute Day. Packets for continuity of learning will be emailed to all students and parents and also be available for pickup from 10am-6pm on Tuesday for those who would prefer a paper copy. Packets for SES students (and 3rd/4th grade iPads) can be picked up in the SES cafeteria, and packets for SMS/SHS students can be picked up in the Commons. SMS/SHS students and parents will have access to lockers at this time as well. SES students can pick up medication from 10am-6pm on Tuesday in the SES office, and SMS/SHS students can pick up medication during this time in the SMS office. After this time, no students or parents will have access to the building for the duration of the closure. No meal will be served on Monday, March 16th, but we are working on system for meal delivery to pick-up points around town for the other days of the closure to facilitate the process for students who may not be able to come to the school for meals. Specific meal details will be provided as they are finalized. This is a very dynamic issue, and we apologize for the changes and alterations to previous plans. Please know that our students and community are our priority as we make these difficult decisions.
Starting today, Parents have access to monitor your student's iPad usage 24/7. Please see the following link for information. http://screen.guide/school/821B7
