Dear Parents and Guardians,
It has come to our attention that the need for before and after care is a critical need and we are working to develop a plan to assist with the need of the community. In the meantime, we will offer early drop off for students PK-6th grade at 7:30 at the library doors. If you want to use this, please respond to peavlerj@southholtr1.com, so we can be prepared for your child/ren. We will need you to come inside to the library to sign your children in. Please be patient with us as we try to work out plans. If all things can be worked out, we hope to have information available for a non-profit tuition based program by the end of next week. We want to be part of the solution for our community. Please feel free to reach out to Jean Peavler with any questions at 660-446-2282 Ext. 222. Thank you all!
Educationally Yours,
Jean M. Peavler
