Due to the rise in cases with the new Omicron variant, Sherman ISD is closely monitoring our COVID-19 data, and we need your help.

Please contact your child's school nurse if he or she tests positive for COVID-19 or is symptomatic. If your child is currently absent for one of those reasons, please make sure to report their case to the school nurse as soon as possible.

This will help everyone as we work together to keep our schools open, our teachers in the classroom teaching, our students learning, and everyone safe.
