Important update from the Marion School District:
There have been significant changes in guidance to schools today regarding
COVID-19. As of now, schools in 4 central Arkansas counties have been
directed to close due to new presumptive positive cases and direct contact
by others with those who have tested positive. The decision to close was
made out of an abundance of caution.
School closure decisions will be made in consultation with the Arkansas
Department of Health (ADH) and Arkansas Department of Education (ADE). The
two agencies will work jointly to provide guidance to districts based on
developments in local communities. The ADH and ADE have established a
dedicated hotline for districts to call to discuss whether preemptive
closures are advised.
We will continue to update you as new information is available.
