Good Afternoon Hoopeston Families,
Please see the attached flier regarding Summer Meal information for school aged children 18 and under.
Good Afternoon,
Due to the very low attendance of our Pfizer clinics, we are going to be reducing the hours we are there for the 2nd dose. We will also be ending our clinics 1 hour early tomorrow evening at Salt Fork. We only have 2 people signed up in the last hour and we will be calling them to change their time. I just want to thank you all again for allowing us to be in your schools!!!! If you are asked by parents, there are also opportunities at some of the pharmacies in Danville that will be doing Pfizer for kids. Both Walgreens and Meijer are offering Pfizer. CVS in Hoopeston is also giving vaccinations to 16+. If you can get this out to your parents, I would greatly appreciate it. We are in the process of calling any kiddos who had late appointments.

COVID-19 12-17 year old Vaccination Clinic Requirements
We have to have a parent or legal guardian sign for the consent forms. I have listed a few scenarios:
Parents bringing in their own children – no documentation needed (if a grandparent is bringing the child for the parent, they will need medical power of attorney documentation, not just a permission note.)
Foster Parents – foster care documentation needed
Someone, not the parent, but has Medical Power of Attorney for the child is acceptable
Someone who is the legal guardian and has the court documentation.
If a child comes who is homeless, at risk, etc who has a McKinney Vento Documentation plus a social worker or court ordered person with them to sign, that is acceptable.
We will need a copy of all documentation for our records.
Thank You!
Vermilion County Health Department
COVID19 Vaccine Clinic Schedule
Appointments Highly Recommended, but Walk-ins Welcome (see times for walk-ins for each appointment day and walk-ins will be determined by current supplies)

If you do not register, we cannot guarantee a vaccination at this time. You will be able to register online or you can call 217-431-2662 ext. 263 or 264.

We will be having clinics at the following locations on the following dates: PLEASE READ THE BELOW QUESTIONS (at the end of the blue section) BEFORE SIGNING UP FOR YOUR VACCINE TO MAKE SURE YOU CAN GET A VACCINE. You will be asked screening questions prior to receiving your vaccine and if you answer yes to some of the questions, you may need to wait to receive your vaccine. Please read the Pfizer fact sheet that is also at the end of the blue section.
NOTE: Children must have a parent/guardian with them to sign the consent form. Please only have 1 parent/guardian come to the clinic and only the children who will be receiving the vaccine to help with social distancing and flow. You must wear a mask.

Hoopeston Area Families,
Another opportunity to receive the COVID-19 Vaccination for individuals 12 - 15 years of age. Follow the directions on the image below.
Age 12 - 15 Vaccination clinic
Hoopeston Area CUSD #11 will be partnering with the Vermilion County Health Department to host a COVID-19 vaccination clinic for individuals 12-15 years of age on May 18 from 3 - 7 pm in the HAHS Auditorium. A second dose clinic is to be scheduled for June 8. Vaccinations will be dependent on vaccine supply and final approval.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration expanded the emergency use authorization (EUA) for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine for the prevention of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) to include adolescents 12 through 15 years of age. The FDA amended the EUA originally issued on Dec. 11, 2020 for administration in individuals 16 years of age and older.
“The FDA’s expansion of the emergency use authorization for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine to include adolescents 12 through 15 years of age is a significant step in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Acting FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock, M.D. “Today’s action allows for a younger population to be protected from COVID-19, bringing us closer to returning to a sense of normalcy and to ending the pandemic. Parents and guardians can rest assured that the agency undertook a rigorous and thorough review of all available data, as we have with all of our COVID-19 vaccine emergency use authorizations.”
Hoopeston Area Families,
If you would like to be on the list to receive remote meals, email remotemeals@hoopeston.k12.il.us before noon on Tuesday with the child's name and grade currently attending to be put on the list.

Dear Hoopeston Area Parents or Guardians,
The State of Illinois is approved to provide new Pandemic Electronic Benefits Transfer Program (P-EBT) benefits to all eligible Illinois students. Families in our district qualify for P-EBT because we are a school that participates in the National School Lunch Program’s Community Eligibility Provision (CEP). You do not need to complete an application to receive these benefits. Please note that citizenship status does not affect eligibility.
What action needs to be taken now? At this time, it is very important for all families to ensure that the mailing address on file at your enrolling school is current. A complete mailing address will be needed to receive the P-EBT issuance in the near future.
What is P-EBT? The purpose of P-EBT is to provide food assistance to families with students who would have received free or reduced lunch while attending school but are not receiving these meals in school due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Who is eligible for P-EBT benefits? The following students are eligible for P-EBT benefits for School Year 2020-21. Students must be enrolled in an eligible NSLP participating Illinois school and; Students must be determined eligible to receive free/reduced lunch for the 2020-21 school year or enrolled in a Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) school and; Students are P-EBT eligible on school days in which a reimbursable meal was not provided to the student to consume at school.
When will I receive the benefits? The Department of Human Services should begin issuing new P-EBT cards to all known eligible students in March 2021. Please note that all eligible students will receive benefits for all eligible school days, back to the beginning of this school year.
If you need to change the address on file for your child(ren) please log into your InfoNow parent portal to update the address. If you have questions concerning P-EBT, please contact Chrissy Coffman at 217-283-6663.
Thank you for your time to this matter.

Good Afternoon Hoopeston Area Families,
Hoopeston Area CUSD #11 recognizes the importance of protecting students and staff, and is doing everything in our power to keep our schools open and in-session.
The Illinois Department of Public Health has categorized basketball as a higher risk level activity. IDPH guidance classifies basketball at a Higher-risk sport and may currently participate at Level 1. Level 1 is defined as No-contact practices, and training only. Hoopeston Area CUSD #11 will continue to follow the guidelines of ISBE/IDPH for educational activities to keep our students and staff safe and our schools open. Click the link below to read the IDPH Sports safety guidance.
https://www.dph.illinois.gov/covid19/community-guidance/sports-safety-guidance
The statement released by IHSA does not identify the liability risk a School District would be accepting if they made the decision to defy the IDPH guidance. In plain language, this means the district could be held responsible, if any negative outcomes occur. In consultation with legal counsel and liability insurance carriers, Hoopeston Area CUSD #11 will comply with the IDPH guidance and restrict basketball to Level 1 No-contact practices, and training only.
Hoopeston Area CUSD #11 will continue to await direction from the state about when it is safe to resume play before taking any further action to schedule our basketball season. We remain grateful for the hard work that students, families, and our staff have done to keep students protected and our schools open for in-person instruction, and we are committed to doing our best to keep everyone safe.

Thank you Emergency Response Team #Cornjerkerpride be safe!
Hello! This is John Klaber principal at HAHS. Tomorrow Thursday, April 25th, HAHS, in partnership with Carle Hoopeston Regional Health Center and Community Partners, is conducting a mock crash at Hoopeston Area High School at 9:00 AM. The mock car crash aims to send a reminder of the dangers and consequences of unsafe driving behaviors — such as
drinking and driving and not buckling up — prior to prom and the end of the school year.
The mock crash will be using real crashed vehicles set up on school grounds and student participants to dramatically act out roles as crash victims. The school’s student body will watch the demonstration and learn how emergency responders conduct rescue efforts in real-time. This includes the use of emergency vehicles and a life flight helicopter arriving on the scene.
The dramatization, followed by a school assembly, will last from 9:00-10:45.
Participating in the event are the Hoopeston Fire Department, Hoopeston Police Department, Arrow Ambulance, AirLife Helicopter service, Carle Hoopeston Regional Health Center, Anderson Funeral Home, Paul’s Towing service, and a Vermilion County Coroner representative.

Hoopeston Area School District Press Release
The Board of Education of Hoopeston Area School District is aware of misinformation in the community regarding the schools' policy about various matters. In an effort to correct the record, each and every school in the district calls the Pledge of Allegiance every morning. Students in early grades are taught the Pledge, and all students are asked to stand and recite the Pledge every day. No teacher in the schools is permitted to discourage students from standing for the Pledge or otherwise interfere with their showing of respect for the law's requirement that students be asked to reflect respect for our country. Even still, the school district fully understands and respects students' Constitutional rights to peaceably refrain from the Pledge during the school day.
It is not District policy to comment on individual employment matters. Teachers are required to fully implement the school district's educational program, and the District is aware of no instance that a teacher has directed a student or group of students not to participate in the Pledge, and is aware of no instance that a teacher has discouraged any student from standing and reciting the Pledge. The school district and its staff have never asked for or ordered a student's vehicle to be relocated due to an expression of speech.
The school district fully supports its' students rights to, without disruption to education, peacefully and safely express their individual political and personal beliefs at school.
The HAHS Cornjerker Spirit Store is happy to announce our March shirts are in! We have two shirt options: a gray t-shirt (youth XS - Adult 5XL) and a gray t-shirt with white stripes (Adult S - 3XL).
