FDISD has 4 confirmed student cases of COVID-19 at the Junior/Senior High School. Per our board adopted protocol, all Junior/Senior high students, grades 6 through 12, will remain home on Tuesday and Wednesday for remote instruction. These students will need to log onto their assigned school laptops, or home computers, for instruction on those two days. Students will return to normal hours on campus on Thursday, January 14. Families of any students that may have been in close contact have been notified and should monitor their child for any symptoms. The high school basketball games with Sierra Blanca on Tuesday have been cancelled and will be rescheduled. Dirks-Anderson students will continue to attend classes on campus, as normal.
