News & Announcements

Today the SEUHD issued one final mask mandate for Grand County School District schools. This mandate begins Monday, November 8, and expires Saturday, December 18. Once school resumes on January 3, there will be no mask mandate in place. This final mandate gives parents the opportunity to have their child(ren) fully vaccinated against covid. The covid vaccine is a choice and will not be mandated for students or staff. GCSD and SEUHD are sponsoring vaccine clinics on Monday, November 8 and Tuesday, November 9 from 3:00 - 6:00 at HMK. To participate in the clinic, you must sign up for a time at https://www.seuhealth.com/vaccine-scheduling, or click here.

Picture retakes are on November 17. If your student needs a retake, you must return the original package of photos in its entirety and give it to the photographer.

We are unable to provide substitutes for this many staff members. We will be cancelling school and any after-school activities for Grand County High School next week from Tuesday, Sept. 7-10. All athletics and/or after-school events both on and off campus are also cancelled. Custodians will be doing a deep cleaning during this time. If we need to cancel classes at Margaret L. Hopkin Middle School or Helen M. Knight Elementary, we will send out a notification of that in a later message.
