We have a large number of HIGH SCHOOL students who will be quarantined due to contact tracing. You will be contacted by the Howell or Ozark County Health Department. SEATED INSTRUCTION will continue for the vast majority of all other students who are not quarantined! We also have several staff members quarantined, but we are trying our best to continue with seated learning as long as we can cover classes.
The Food Truck is CANCELED for today. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience!!!
The food truck has not made it to Gainesville yet. We will most likely NOT be ready for public pick up until 11. I will keep you updated on this site!!!
The Food Boxes are available in Bakersfield, MISSOURI. If you are seeing this in Bakersfield, CALIFORNIA----you probably won't make it in time. (We have had a LOT of calls from Bakersfield, CA.)
Food Boxes will be available from 10 AM to noon Friday, October 9. Please enter from O Hwy behind the bus barn. You will exit down by the elementary where the parent pick up line is. (This exit is a slight change from the original plan.) We can not store left-overs. This will be first come, first served. If you have called, emailed or messaged us, we have your counts. If not, please let us know so we have enough! See you tomorrow. This is FREE for ANYONE! Dairy, meat/protein, fruit and vegetables!
The food delivery Friday will be in the back gravel parking lot. Please enter from O Hwy behind where the buses park and exit through the gate by the gym, also off O Hwy. Food boxes must be picked up between 10 and noon. We CAN NOT store the food!
We will have food boxes available for pick up for ANYONE this Friday. We expect to have the boxes (containing meat, dairy, vegetables and fruit) here between 10 and noon. You must be able to pick up the food during this time. We can not store it. Please message the school on FaceBook or call the office so we can get a count! This is a FREE program and is open to ANYONE!
