Some schools in Arkansas have closed due to the Corona virus. If we experience any Springdale school closure, the district will make an informed decision about the use of Alternative Methods of Instruction (AMI) days. AMI days allow teaching and learning to continue away from school campuses. Your student will be bringing home a packet today with information about how AMI days will work, should it be necessary.

To the Springdale Community,
Student and staff health and safety is the number one concern of Springdale Public Schools. Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson and Secretary of Education Johnny Key recommend school districts in counties without a presumptive case remain open in order to not disrupt community life, especially meal services for children and health services for all. The CDC guidance on COVID-19 is that short to medium duration school closings are not recommended. The major request is for good judgment be in place for hygiene for all students and staff along with social distancing. Springdale Public Schools will remain open.
