All Madison-Grant Schools are closed today because of an outbreak of Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease at Summitville Elementary.
Two kindergarten students at Summitville were confirmed with the disease and several other students in the class were sent home because they showed symptoms of Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease, which is contagious.
As a precaution, Madison-Grant school officials decided to close the entire school system today. With a day off today, plus the weekend, plus a scheduled day off Monday for Parent-Teacher conferences, school officials hope the disease will be eradicated. The schools will be thoroughly cleaned and dis-infected over the weekend.
Today will be an e-learning day for Madison-Grant students.
