On Friday, September 25th, Governor Whitmer issued Executive Order 2020-183, which required all students in grades K-5 to wear a face mask in classrooms, beginning on Monday, October 5th. Prior executive orders had recommended, but not required, a face mask in grades K-5.
On Friday, October 2nd, the Michigan Supreme Court ruled that Governor Whitmer did not have the authority to issue COVID-19 Executive Orders after April 30th, 2020, under the Emergency Management Act. The Court also ruled that the Emergency Powers of the Governor Act, which is the basis for issuing Executive Orders, is unconstitutional.
In regards to this decision, Deckerville Community Schools will follow the recommendation of our law firm, which, until further clarity is received, is to continue to comply with our board approved COVID-19 Preparedness and Response plan. This is exactly how we started the school year, and we have been quite successful thus far in implementing this plan. In regard to the wearing of masks, K-5 students in self-contained classrooms will not be required to wear masks while in class.
Small change to the Elementary Spirit Days next week due to picture day. On Wednesday Oct 7 we will have "Dress to Impress" day because that is also our picture day. On Oct 8 we will have Athletes vs Mathletes. Sorry for the change, but this sequence makes more sense :) Thank you in advance .
Elementary picture day is Wednesday Oct 7 and a Lifetouch picture envelope has been sent home with your student. Any K-6 virtual student can come in for pictures on Oct 7 from 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm. Please call the elementary office at 376-9785 and let us know that your virtual student will be coming in for pictures.
Picture Day is October 15, 2020. You can find a Birchfield picture form in Documents > High School > Picture form.

To Whom It May Concern:
The baseball and softball programs did a fundraiser in the spring for the pending March Madness. Due to Covid-19, baseball was cancelled. If you paid for a square and you would like your money returned, please contact Todd Walker at twalker@deckerville.k12.mi.us. Please send him your address so he can mail your refund. If you paid for a square and you would like to donate the money to the baseball and softball programs, thank you. This money will be going toward the payment of the dugouts.
Peace,
Todd Walker and the baseball team &
Christi Pavlovics and the softball team
Home room
Hello, this is Michael Hugan, Superintendent of Deckerville Community Schools. I am calling to remind you that tomorrow, Monday, August 31st, Deckerville Community Schools will begin face to face instruction. The doors will be opened at 7:45am, and school will begin at 8:05am and end at 3:00pm. All students will need to wear masks on busses and when entering the building. Kindergarten-5th grade students will need to wear masks until their teachers allow them to take them off once inside the classroom. Parents of Kindergarten through 2nd grade will be allowed to accompany their students to the classroom door, however, they will also be required to wear a mask in the building. Parents of 3rd-6th may drop off their students at the main elementary door and the students will go to the breakfast room first on their way to their classroom.
We are excited to have the majority of our students back once again. Face to face instruction is what we do best at Deckerville Community Schools, and teachers, as well as other school workers, are looking forward to interacting with the students that they have sorely missed since mid-March. If you have questions, please contact the Elementary school or High School office. Thank you, and have a good evening.

For frequently asked questions regarding the COVID-19 Response
Parents interested in the 100% virtual learning option for the 2020-2021 school year, there will be a town hall with our virtual provider on Monday Aug 17, 2020 @ 7:00 pm in the HS Cafe.

Some classes require more writing :)
