ATTENTION -
Letter from the Central Michigan District Health Department
April 22, 2021
Dear Families,
We are very sad to announce that Matt Helmer, who drove the Dolphin Bus for the Farwell Area Schools, died yesterday as a result of illness. FAS waited to share this information out of courtesy for his family, who asked us to allow them time to notify Matt’s family members before the information was made public.
When a trusted adult dies, students go through many fears and adjustments. They also may begin to worry about the possibility of something happening to their own parents or grandparents.
This is an important time for you to speak to your children. Often families use a time like this to reinforce their own personal spiritual values. It is also important to reassure your children that you are okay and that you are taking good care of yourself. Also, your children need to know that you have planned for someone to give them a place to live and care for them, in case something should ever happen to you. Resources to support you and your family are available on our website.
We have talked with the students that knew Matt, and have counseling available for any student or staff member who would like to talk about their feelings. Please feel free to call if there is any other way we can be of more assistance.
Sincerely,
Steven Scoville
Farwell Area School Superintendent
Good morning, K-12 Schools:
Attached is a document regarding quarantine (14 days) and isolation information. This was also sent out in press release format to our media partners this morning. With case counts increasing, and with vaccine being available now, we thought it would be best to send this out. We are encouraging all those who live, work or attend school in our six counties, and who are ages 16 years and above, to schedule their first dose vaccination appointment, if they haven’t already done so. We have openings in some of our clinics this week, including our clinic site for 16 and 17 year olds. We currently have openings at only one clinic in our jurisdiction for 16-17 year olds and that is Hayes Township Hall in Harrison. They can schedule an appointment on our website. A parent/guardian must accompany them to the appointment. Our Hayes Township Hall clinic, and all of our remaining clinics, can serve those who are 18 years of age and above.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
