COVID-19 Meals Program

March 20, 2020

Dear Families,

In an effort to meet the needs of our families, AGWSR Schools has created a plan to provide meals to the students in the district. The goal of this program is to help provide breakfast and lunch for as many families as we can. We want to make this as easy as we can while still following the guidelines that have been set by the Iowa Department of Education under the grant we have received. If you have questions please call the district office at 641-847-2611. If we do not answer, please leave a message and we will get back to you. Please note, the district office hours during the closure will be Tues. and Thurs from 9:00 AM-1:00 PM. There may be other times when someone is in the office, however, it will be staffed for sure during the above times. You may also email any of the administrators with any questions.

Beginning Monday, March 23, the following will take effect:

A grab and go lunch option with breakfast items for the following day will be provided for any child 18 and younger.
Please sign up using the provided google form by 6pm the day before you are requesting lunch. Click HERE for the google form or navigate to the AGWSR homepage. The form will need to be completed for each day you would like a meal.
1. Each family will need to complete the form for their own children.
2. You may have anyone pick up the meal for your family. (Another adult, a child, etc.) An example would be families living in rural areas or in Steamboat Rock or Geneva might set up a car pool or pick up rotation with other families. Make sure to note that on the form.
There will be no charge to anyone for this service.
Pickup will be provided at the following locations from 11:00 AM until 12:30 PM every weekday of the closure: (both locations will be marked with cones)
1. AGWSR High School-South kitchen door
2. Wellsburg Center-West kitchen door
If you drive to the pickup location, please remain in your vehicle and staff will bring your meals out to you.
If you walk to the pickup location, please remain outside and staff will bring your meals out to you.

Thank you for your flexibility and understanding during this unprecedented time.

Dear Families,

First, we would like to thank all of you for your understanding and flexibility up to this point as we progress through this situation. We are hopeful this document provides each of you more clarity on the closure moving forward. Also, The legislature has forgiven all hours lost during the COVID-19 closure. They have also given Governor Reynolds the ability to extend the closure beyond April 13th

If you have specific questions that are not answered in this document, please contact any of the building offices which are open during regular hours until March 20th.

K-5 Device Pickup

We will be providing a school owned device for all K-5 students to use during the closure.
Families are invited to pick up their students' devices on Thursday, March 19th from 2pm-7pm.
Devices will need to be picked up from your child’s attendance center.

Student/Family Learning Resources

To help learning continue, our educators are organizing resources by grade level and subject. Use the following links to access the resources.
1. K-5
2. 6-8
3. 9-12
Resources will be shared via the school website/social media on a weekly basis.
Teachers will not be assigning or grading work over the next three weeks, Remember to have your child read every day or read to them!

Curbside Meal Pickup

We are still working on getting our plan approved by the state to offer a grab and go lunch option with breakfast items for the following day for any child 18 and younger. More information will be provided once we receive final approval.
