The Catapult Health Clinic scheduled for today has been postponed until Monday, August 30th. All appointments will be at the same time that day.
FREE MEALS EXTENDED
Covid waivers allow ALL students at Viola School District to receive FREE BREAKFAST, LUNCH and SNACK for the 2021-2022 SCHOOL YEAR! This is a blessing for our students for the upcoming school year. A free and reduced application does NOT have to be completed!
However, applications will still be mailed to all households in the district and are available at the elementary and high school offices.
So why complete a Free and Reduced Application?
Qualified households could receive a Pandemic-Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT) of $375 for every eligible student. Some households only qualify if they complete a new Free and Reduced Application and qualify this year.
The Viola School District will be holding an open house on Thursday, August 12th. It will be an opportunity to drop in and meet your teachers and find classrooms before the first day of school, which is Tuesday, August 17th. There will not be a Kindergarten or 7th grade orientation meeting that night, as we have held in the past. However, those students will be able to meet and greet teachers like the other grades can.
In conjunction with this year's Open House, the Pharmacy Barn will hold a vaccination clinic in the High School building beginning at 6:00 pm. The Pfizer vaccine will be available to individuals 12 and older. Although this clinic is intended for our students, you do not have to be a student to get vaccinated.
Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccines are available by appointment only for those age 12 and older at the Baxter Regional Internal Medicine & Infectious Disease Clinic.
To request a vaccine appointment, call (870) 508-7450 Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. Friday, 8 a.m. - noon.
