There have been many calls regarding the number of students absent at some of our schools. As of right now, we are remaining about the same with our numbers.    The State Department says as long as there is enough staff to supervise/care for our students, we are to remain open.  We are closely monitoring the situation.  These are the approximate numbers of student absences:  MES 56, MMS 54, GBEMS 17, PCHS 42, and HES 8.
