At Hay Springs Public Schools our focus will be doing what we believe is necessary to keep everyone safe and healthy. The last thing that we want is to have any of our students, parents/guardians, staff or patrons of our community, ill with COVID because our students are back in school.

ENTERING THE BUILDING

Wearing of Face mask will be supported by our staff but is totally optional. Students are to arrive between 7:30 to 8:00 am NOT EARLIER THAN 7:30 AM. PLEASE UTILIZE THE STAFF PARKING LOT if necessary, there will be NO PARKING FROM 7:30 – 9:00AM or from 3:30 - 5:00 PM in the red marked curb area.

This area is in the front of the building, from the cafeteria entrance door, to the Auditorium entrance door. Parallel parking for curbside student drop-off and pickup only in this area. When approaching the school from North 4^th street please turn north and drop students off curbside on east side of the street. All students will enter the building THROUGH THE OFFICE ENTRANCE, between 7:30 and 8:00 am. Utilize hand sanitizer when entering the building. Practice social distancing whenever possible. Wearing of Face masks will be supported by our staff but is totally optional.

If the temperature is below 50 degrees, elementary students must have a coat on at recess.  Many days it has not reached the high temp by recess time, or due to wind chill it is cooler than it seems.
