Shot Requirements for 2017-2018 school year *All incoming 8th graders will need a Tdap and MCV shot before they can start school in August. *ALL incoming 12th graders will need 2 MCV shots unless the first shot was given after the age of 16, in which case they will only need 1 shot before they can start school in August. * I am sending this information out now to give you 3 full months to get these shots before August. Please do not wait until August to get these required shots because you run the risk of doctors offices/health departments running out of the shots before your child can receive one. Please be aware that if your child does not have their vaccination by the first day of school they will not be able to start until they receive the vaccination. There will be no exceptions!Please turn in proof of vaccinations to my office as soon as you get them. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at 778-7217.

Alton R-IV will resume classes on our regular schedule and normal start times on Monday, May 8, 2017. The school year was originally scheduled to end at 12:45pm on Thursday, May 11, 2017. We will now be in session for a full day until 3:26pm on Thursday May 11, 2017. The school year will also be extended by one day and the last day of school will now be on Friday, May 12, 2017 and it will be a full day ending normally at 3:26pm. Bus drivers will be on campus Friday, May 5 to review routes and will be in contact with families, as needed, if route changes are going to be required based on road or bridge conditions. We will do our best, and what is safe, in providing district transportation to students. However, we will ask for support and help from some of our parents in making student transportation a reality for this last week of school. MAP testing for grades 3-8 will be taking place daily the week of May 8-12 as we complete our state mandated testing. We cannot stress enough the importance of your child attending classes and completing this required testing. Elementary awards ceremonies will occur, but not on the same schedule originally sent home with students. A new awards ceremony schedule will be provided soon. JH and HS students will have finals as well (schedule to be posted soon) and those students striving to have good attendance and be exempted from finals need to be aware all days in session the week of May 8 will count toward this goal. As our timeline has become very compressed to conclude the academic requirements of the school year, JH and HS field trips are going to be greatly restricted and elementary field days for all grades, K-6, are going to be cancelled. We regret these decisions, but must prioritize what is to be accomplished in the days on campus we have remaining. Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with those most directly impacted by the flooding and thank all of our students and patrons for their understanding as we have navigated these issues and rescheduling of events.
