St. Louis Public Schools Families,

Good afternoon. If you have not heard, Governor Whitmer has issued an executive order suspending face-to-face learning at K-12 schools for the remainder of the school year. Let me first say on behalf of all St. Louis Public Schools' employees, we miss our students! We also care about the health and safety of our students, therefore keeping them at home is for the best. Currently, administration, teachers, and support staff are working to develop a plan to provide distance learning for our students. A survey was sent out yesterday to determine the specific needs of our students. Based on the survey, we will develop an appropriate way to deliver lessons, assignments, and projects. We will communicate with families as soon as a plan is put in place. Some families have concerns about a lack of resources and accessibility. Please know we will address those concerns and needs. We have many meetings planned in the coming days with all of the necessary staff. I truly believe you are in good hands with our staff and their willingness to work hard for every single student to get them what they need. We will continue our food service delivery throughout the remainder of the school year. Some adaptations may occur over time, but rest assured we will make sure our students are still receiving meals. If you have not had an opportunity to complete the St. Louis Public Schools' Student Internet Survey, please use the survey link below. As soon as information is available we will communicate with all families.

Thank you for your support and please take care!

Sincerely,

Jennifer McKittrick

SLPS Superintendent

FFA State Degree Recipients

The State FFA Degree is the highest honor a State FFA Association can bestow upon its members. To qualify for this degree, members must have been enrolled in agricultural education for at least two years and complete 360 hours of school-based agricultural education. They must also have a productive Supervised Agricultural Experience, which is conducted outside of school where they have invested an additional 300 hours. Members must have also demonstrated their leadership abilities through a speech, demonstration of parliamentary procedure, and serve as a committee member or as a chapter officer. FFA Members who receive this award have completed a minimum of 25 service hours and have a satisfactory academic record verified by the school administration. The Michigan State FFA Degree is also counted by Michigan State University for six general education credits and can be applied to any degree track at MSU. This year’s recipients are Kassidy Acker, Corban Allen, Michael Hrabal, Taylor Marr, and Jaden Simmons.

Little Free Library

Take a Book ~ Share a Book

You may have noticed a new addition outside of Carrie Knause! We now have our own little free library! One of our 2nd graders in Mrs. Jenkin's class thought this would be a great addition to our school. Her and her classmates then pursued a grant through the Youth Advisory Council with the Gratiot Community Foundation to secure the funds for this project! Please feel free to grab a book when your child needs something to read or swap us books after your child has finished reading one of their books!
 

Digital All-State Athlete Display

Please check out our new interactive touch screen display just outside the gym for All-State athletes at SLHS! All you have to do is walk up and touch the display to interact with it. This is an ongoing project by some of our business students and we are working to get it updated and current.  If you have additions to this site, please email Mr. Hemker.  Also, for most of the athletes we had to scan in old yearbook photos so if you have an updated photo of yourself, please send it on as well. Check out the video in the recent Shark Scene article to see it in action. You can also view the site online.

Schools of Choice

Schools in Gratiot and Isabella counties participate in a cross-district Schools of Choice Program.  Parents can consider a school that best fits their child's individual needs.  Schools of Choice applications must be completed and submitted to the Gratiot-Isabella Region Education Service District. Check out the Schools of Choice brochure for more information.

We are the St. Louis Sharks!

Our motto that St. Louis Public Schools lives by is: “Together we Can, Together we Do!” We have had that motto for the past two years and will continue to live by that. “Together we Can, Together we Do!”   means we really need to work together.  Working together will bring support and pride to everyone.  Working together will allow for us to always put kids first.  We take pride in our programming, our staff, our students, and our community.
