Safety Precautions for Students and Parents - If parents choose to allow their child to participate in the viewing event, parents are encouraged to go over safety guidelines with their child in advance. The eclipse glasses provided by the district must be kept on at all times during viewing and removing glasses, even temporarily, may have serious effects on the participant's eyes. Students should be encouraged to take breaks and look away from the sun to give their eyes a rest. Even with eclipse glasses, students should not stare continuously at the sun. Parents are encouraged to contact their child's optometrist or ophthalmologist if they have concerns about their child's participation. If your school or your child is not participating in this event, we still want to encourage parents to talk to their children about safety precautions regarding the eclipse. The totality of the eclipse will begin about 12:30 p.m. and end around 3:10 p.m. Even if a parent does not want their child to participate in a viewing event, students may be outside during class changes, athletic practices, school dismissal, etc. during this 2.5-hour period. As a result, parents should review safety procedures with their children and remind them to never look at the sun without special eye protection.
SMSD - All school buildings have been cleared of any threat. All students from the middle school and high school have returned to campus. Our dismissal will be at the normal scheduled dismissal. Thank you to all of the following for your dedicated professional assistance: Senatobia Police and Fire Departments, Tate County Sheriff's Department, Desoto and Southaven Police departments, Northwest Community College, and the University of Mississippi. It was truly a team effort today. Thank parents for your cooperation and know that the safety of our students and staff are always our top priority.
SMSD A threat was made to the middle school. Out of abundance of caution we have walked all of our middle and high school students to the NWCC coliseum. The police, fire, and local authorities are aware and we are scanning the buildings. After the search is done and it is cleared we will return to the school for normal release times. No one will be allowed on campus until the search is cleared. Please let our staff handle the students returning from school. We will communicate when that happens. More information will come asap.
