REMINDERS FOR THE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 7TH:
There is no school on Monday, September 7th for the Labor Day Holiday.
There is no school on Friday, September 11th for our first Remote Learning Professional Development Day.
Good Afternoon,
The attached link is for the Morris 54 Breakfast/Lunch Order Form for the week of September 8th. We were notified last week that the USDA is allowing schools to provide free meals to all families regardless of economic status. These meals are also available to all children age 18 and under. These free meals are available until the end of the calendar year.
Students enrolled in Morris Grade School must fill out the form to receive the meals. If you have other children in the household that need lunches and are not enrolled students, you must pick up those lunches during our Grab and Go Pick Up time from 1-1:30 pm. We will only send one meal home per student. Siblings cannot take multiple sack lunches home for other family members. The additional lunches must be picked up during pick up time for our record keeping. Thank you for your cooperation. We hope this is a helpful service as we work together to get through these unique times.

at all times except for when eating, drinking, or when outside
and able to maintain a safe social distance."
