High School Athletes: Workouts & Workout Groups will remain the same for at least another week. IHSA rules for Stage 2 have yet to be approved by the ISBE. Students who have contacted Mr. Keown about being added will be notified by him of which group they will be joining. As soon as we know more regarding changes to summer workout rules or anything with regards to fall sports at both junior high and high school, we will let you know.
Also, our Athletic Facilities unfortunately remain closed to the public for the time being. If rules change that would allow public use, we will share as soon as possible.
Marshall Schools Community,
Today at 3:00, the Governor and the Illinois State Board of Education released their guidance for Schools as we enter Phase 4 of the Restore Illinois Plan and for our return to In-Person School in August.
Highlights of this plan are being released through News outlets and other Social Media avenues by the Governor as I write this.
As you hear and see these highlights from other sources, please know that we appreciate your continued patience and trust as we work to make the best possible safe, but least restrictive local plan possible that we can for our students, staff, parents, and the greater Marshall Schools Community.
More information and communication will be provided in the coming days and weeks as we work through this together.
Sincerely,
Kevin Ross
