Thank you AR Department of Health and Guy-Perkins community for a successful COVID Vaccine Clinic! 41 vaccines given in 5 hours!
All parents of Guy-Perkins students are asked to complete the following "Ready for Learning" survey by Monday, August 2 to help inform the district of our students' needs and concerns: https://forms.gle/Q27527CbkYMWixVw7.
Just like last summer, Guy-Perkins students should be receiving in the mail a P-EBT card from the Department of Human Services that can be used to purchase food items. Some students may have already received their card and it is hoped by August 31 that all cards will have been mailed out to students' families. The dollar amount on the card is based on the numbers of days school was not in session due to Covid-19 related issues. Students may receive a one time benefit for the summer as well. We will keep families up to date as these benefits come out in the next few weeks. Please do not throw away any letter from the Department of Human Services. The call center does not have a list of students eligible, just what services are provided. Because our district was free to all students, all students are eligible.

Guy-Perkins School District encourages ALL families to join us in helping protect students and staff from COVID-19/Delta Variant as we begin the new school year. We encourage everyone to stay protected by being vaccinated, or by wearing a mask while at school and on buses. The district is working with the AR Department of Health to set up a vaccination clinic on campus within the next few weeks for students, as well as area residents. We will announce the date, time, and place as soon as it is available.
All offices will be closed on Monday, July 5, 2021 to honor Independence Day! Have a safe and fun holiday!
