As you know, Central Elementary has been closed and utilizing virtual learning for the last two days. Unfortunately, we received word from the Putnam County Health Department this afternoon that Central Elementary will need to be closed for one additional day. Therefore, on Thursday, December 8th, Central Elementary, and ONLY Central Elementary, will again have eLearning.
There may be other impacts to district activities but look for those announcements directly from those activity sponsors.
Again, as directed by the Putnam County Health Department, Central Elementary, and ONLY Central Elementary, will be closed and utilizing eLearning on Thursday, December 8th. If any further updates become available, we will be sure to provide timely and informative updates.
Stay safe and healthy, Eagles!

Good afternoon,
Earlier today, I sent out several notifications to Central Elementary parents regarding the closing of the Central Elementary building on Tuesday, December 6th, and Wednesday, December 7th, as a precaution against increasing sickness and absences. Working in coordination with the Putnam County Health Department, this closure was due to increased absences above the threshold for Putnam County Health Department guidelines. Therefore, to continue the learning processes, Central Elementary, and ONLY Central Elementary, will have eLearning on both days.
We understand that this temporary building closure has had some impact on other district activities as well, but we will continue to monitor and open the building just as soon as possible.
Again, due to increased absences due to sickness, Central Elementary, and ONLY Central Elementary, will be closed on Tuesday and Wednesday, with eLearning on both days. If any further updates are required, we will be sure to provide timely and informative updates.
Stay safe and healthy, Eagles!

South Putnam Community School Corporation would like to ask your opinion on having an elementary school-age child care program available to support families with Before or After School Care. This process includes several different areas in which the District will research associated costs of the program, the level of interest from families, and available resources to offer the program.

Late this afternoon, near the end of the school day, the water main feeding South Putnam Middle School/High School and Central Elementary was breached, yet again, by gas pipeline construction crews across from the main campus on US Highway 40.
As of this notification, we are still planning on a regular day of school tomorrow, just with water boil order precautions in place. Our food services director and cafeteria staff have already made adjustments to accommodate the boil order, but please feel free to send a bottle of water with your student tomorrow.
We will keep you posted if anything should change.
The water boil order was officially lifted this afternoon; therefore, we will return to normal operations at South Putnam MS/HS and Central Elementary tomorrow, Thursday, August 11th.
