Masks are most likely to slow the spread of COVID-19 when they are widely used in public settings. Wear a mask when you are around people not living in your household, especially when social distancing (staying at least 6 feet apart) is difficult to maintain.

MSD Parents, we are excited to announce that the annual student update for the upcoming school year is now online! This process replaces the paper forms sent home at the beginning of each school year. You will be sent a snapcode to the email address the district has on file. The snapcode is like a key to your child’s annual student update information for the upcoming school year. You should receive a unique snapcode or snapcode link for each child in your household. If your email on record is incorrect or missing your code will be sent in the mail.

In need of after school care? Call the Boys and Girls Club of Crittenden County at 870-735-1658
