Maumelle High School

Maumelle High School will continue virtual instruction for all students next week, October 12 - October 16. This also means there will be athletic or extracurricular activities next week. Classes , athletics, and extracurricular activities will resume with onsite instruction on Monday, October 19, 2020. At this time we are not aware of any additional positive COVID-19 cases. However, we still have a substantial number of students and staff under quarantine who were identified as probable close contacts. All teachers will communicate with students through Schoology. Also, a 5-day meal box will be available for pick up Monday between 9am - 1pm at the high school at the back door by the cafeteria. We strongly encourage all students to avoid group activities outside of school and continue to wear proper PPE. Together we can help stop the spread of COVID-19.

The Six Bridges Book Festival from @CALibrarySystem will be available free & live online October 8-18. The event will feature more than 50 authors & presenters including cooking demonstrations, crafts, and contests. #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence

October is Computer Learning Month. This month, we encourage members of the PCSSD community who are not familiar with computers to learn something new. Many local libraries provide resources to teach everything from the basics to more advanced skills.

Maumelle High School has quarantined an increasing number of students and staff in a short period of time who have been identified as probable close contacts. Although the number of actual positive cases for COVID-19 are low, we want to ensure that all students and staff remain healthy and safe. It is for that reason that Maumelle High School will pivot to full virtual instruction October 6 through October 9. On Friday, October 9, we will reassess the need to extend virtual instruction. All students will communicate with teachers through Schoology. Also, a 4-day meal box will be available for pick up Tuesday between 9am - 1pm at the high school at the back door by the cafeteria. We strongly encourage all students to avoid group activities outside of school and continue to wear proper PPE. Together we can help stop the spread of COVID-19.
