The safety and well-being of our students is our top priority. In accordance with state law (Erin's Law), HSGS/JH will be hosting an age-appropriate personal safety and child sexual abuse prevention presentation for all students on Wednesday, November 4th, Monday, November 16th, and Wednesday, November 18th.
Since 2013, Erin's Law has required all Illinois schools to provide age-appropriate child sexual abuse prevention education annually for K-12 students. Freedom House partners with local school districts to help schools meet this requirement. These lessons are designed to empower children by teaching them how to stay safe, set healthy boundaries, and seek help from trusted adults. The topics covered include: Understanding the difference between safe and unsafe touches, identifying personal boundaries, and naming trusted adults at home and at school.
If you prefer that your child NOT participate in this specific lesson, please complete and return the opt-out form that is being sent home with students today by Monday, November 2nd. Students who opt out will be provided with an alternative, supervised educational activity during this time.
Thank you for your continued partnership in keeping our children safe.

Not only did they meet that goal but 80% of students were at or above the 25th%ile in all four areas of testing: Math, Reading, Language, and Science. All students enjoyed an ice cream treat. The students with the top scores made Mrs. Merboth a human sundae!

I want to personally thank all the families who have already participated in our SchoolStore program! We are on our way to reaching our goal, but we need everyone's help to make sure our teachers get the essential tools they need to help our students succeed. If your family has not participated, there's still time!
This safe and easy program is 100% online so there is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. Your child will receive a prize just for participating, and more prizes will be awarded when goals are reached.
Please help now. It really will make a difference.

The Marshall County Sheriff's Office is proud to announce a new partnership with the Linked-Autism Safety Project, an innovative program designed to improve interactions between emergency responders and individuals in the autism and special needs communities. This voluntary registration program aims to collect vital information about individuals with autism and special needs to ensure that first responders can provide the best possible assistance during emergencies. Caregivers are invited to register their loved ones either online through the Sheriff's Department website using the attached link or by visiting the Sheriff's office in person to complete a paper form. A paper form will be accessible on the school website and will be sent home with all students. Please note these forms should be returned to the Marshall County Sheriff's Department, not the school. All information provided through the linked Program will be kept secure and confidential, accessible only to the Marshall County Sheriff's Deputies and emergency responders. Each registered family will receive a Family Emergency Planning Packet. This program is available at no cost to all Marshall County residents. For any question s or further information, please contact the Marshall County Sheriff's Office.
