Free Meal Information
The USDA is offering a free feeding program to all students in our school district through the end of the school year. Bolivar Schools will transition into this program immediately and will offer free meals to all students who are in-person, AIM, or under quarantine. We have a meal pick-up for all (K-12) AIM and quarantined students at Bolivar High School for the entire 2020-2021 school year. If you have any questions, please contact Anna Williams at 417-326-5291 ext 2138.
Transitioning In & Out of AIM
In light of the current health environment at Bolivar High School, we have discussed the feasibility of allowing AIM students to move back into seated instruction if this format better meets student learning needs during the current semester. While this is a deviation from our original plan, we are seeing many students impacted by the rise in COVID cases at BHS. A change in settings will allow for more social distancing and will require fewer students to quarantine. Our number one goal is to provide the best possible learning setting for all of our students. Please contact your building principal if you are interested in moving back to seated instruction prior to the end of the semester.
