URGENT MESSAGE:
Hello MES (PreK-6 Mustang Family),
As a cautionary step and based upon consultation with the Jones County Health Department, we will be going to Remote / Virtual Learning Only for All students for the next two (2) weeks from tomorrow (Friday, 2.12.2021) through (Thursday, 2.25.2021).
We will return to Plan A on Friday, 2.26.2021.
Please understand that we do not have a positive covid cluster at our school, which is defined as a minimum of five (5) positive covid cases in a fourteen (14) day period of time. However, as we continue to see our covid related exposures and positive cases rise within our school for our students (grades PreK-6) and our staff, we as a JCPS district and MES administration, feel we need to move to Remote Learning Only for a couple of weeks as a precaution to ensure the continued safety and wellness of our students and staff.
