Covid-19 Point of Contact
Explanation
Our goal is to provide our students with a rigorous learning environment that promotes safety and health in accordance with health agency guidelines as well as opportunities for safe social interaction and involvement in extracurricular activities.
This information is subject to change due to changing Covid-19 data and guidance from various Arkansas state agencies. Consequently, district plans will change accordingly as state guidance changes.
The Gurdon Public School District (GPSD) will adhere to the following guidelines in planning for this school year:
GPSD Safe and Continuous Learning Plan
Since district plans will change accordingly as state guidance changes, we invite you to review the Gurdon Public School District Plan for Safe and Continuous Learning here.
The GPSD Safe and Continuous Learning Plan developed using input from the GPSD Ready for Learning (RfL) Committee. This plan also went to the GPSD Board of Education.
