Class of 2021....one last trip through the elementary. Congrats to all the graduating seniors!
Today was the last day of school for the graduating class of 2021. We celebrated with a walk through the school hallways, one last time, then a tailgate party.
Today we had Brett Dumaw visit to talk to our classroom about the hard work and dedication it takes to become a Valedictorian of your graduating class. He shared the importance of working hard and always doing your best in school.
He also read M is for Mitten to our class and posed for a class picture with some of our youngest Eagle students.

Dear School Community,
As noted on our COVID-19 Dashboard
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1494I-yXQHbKzU6kPs6aVIxKS4jpFnsUp8Vx68AKNkLM , on Wednesday, April 21st, we learned about one school associated cases of COVID-19 in students at Deckerville Community Schools. After consultation with the Sanilac County Health Department, this has led to the quarantining of 17 elementary school students. All associated classrooms have been disinfected.
Deckerville Community Schools will remain OPEN at this time. We are working closely with the Sanilac County Health Department to identify Close Contacts of School Associated Cases of COVID-19. Anyone identified as a Close Contact will be notified by the health department as a part of the COVID-19 investigation process. Please answer the phone if the health department contacts you, as a contact tracer may be trying to reach you with important information.
We recommend taking action to help limit the spread of COVID-19, even if staff members or students are not experiencing symptoms:
• Wear a mask (covering mouth and nose) while in public places or if people who do not live with you must visit your home.
• Practice social distancing (maintaining a distance of 6 feet apart).
• Practice frequent handwashing (using soap for 20 seconds or hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol).
• Follow capacity restrictions of social gatherings.
• Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue or with the inside of your elbow and immediately wash your hands.
• Stay home if you are sick; you can also get tested.
Thank you for understanding that, due to medical privacy laws, we are not able to release the names of the individuals with COVID-19. We will continue to communicate changes and updates with you. With your participation, we believe we can maintain a safe environment while also providing quality education.
If you have any questions, contact the Sanilac County Health Department at 810-648-4098. For answers to your COVID-19 questions, please call the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services COVID-19 Hotline at 888-535-6136 or visit Michigan.gov/Coronavirus.
