Meadow ISD, the Texas Education Agency, the Texas Department of State Health Services, and the CDC are monitoring the spread of the Coronavirus Disease. Health officials believe the risk to our school community is low at this time. Please feel free to visit the DSHS website for up to date information on this disease and how to prevent the spread of germs. You can access the website at: https://dshs.texas.gov/coronavirus Our staff members are working carefully to encourage simple and effective habits of frequent hand washing, covering every cough/sneeze, and cleaning classroom tables/surfaces frequently. This is important not just to help prevent the spread of coronavirus, but to help prevent the spread of other infections (common cold, flu, strep) that can lead to illness and absences. Meadow ISD will continue to monitor and follow the recommendations of the TEA, Department of State Health Services, and the CDC. Thank you for your support of our district, staff, and students.
