Dear Parents, Staff and Students,
We have received information regarding threatening text messages being received in areas across our state and nearby states.
In these schools, parents and students are receiving threatening text messages from a random number. Tech experts believe school information
systems have been hacked. Central Springs' type of data system is currently not on the list of systems suspected of being hacked.
No reports have been made regarding Central Springs parents or students receiving any of these messages.
IMPORTANT ! What to do if a threatening text message is received?
a. Do not reply. This is very important. Law enforcement and tech experts are stating do not engage in a conversation
b. Do not delete the message
c. Immediately contact law enforcement and the school Central Springs works with local law enforcement regarding these types of situations to assure safety in our schools. Should Central Springs have a threat made toward safety in one of our schools, charges will be filed to the fullest extent to any student or adult responsible for the threat. This single act would be life changing for any student or adult.
Let’s work TOGETHER to keep Central Springs a safe and caring place for our students and staff.
Sincerely,
Steve B. Ward
Superintendent

New 7th Grade Iowa Immunization Law
Required Immunization for 7th Graders
Meningococcal Vaccine
Per Iowa law, at the start of the 2017-18 school year, 7th grade students will be REQUIRED to have a meningococcal vaccine (to prevent meningitis, a bacteria that infects the brain, blood and spinal cord). This is a new requirement for the 2017-18 school year. According to the new state law, students that have not received the immunization will not meet the mandatory immunization requirement and no grace period to catch-up will be given. Students may not be able to come to school on the first day of the 2017-18 school year if parents have not provided documentation that their child has received the meningococcal shot. Please turn in to the middle school office a new “Certificate of immunization” that shows documentation that this vaccine was given.
NEW 12th Grade Iowa Immunization Law

Per Iowa law, at the start of the 2017-18 school year, students entering 12th grade, who were born after September 15, 1999, will need proof of two doses of meningococcal (A, C W, Y) vaccine; or 1 dose if received when the student was 16 years of age or older. This is a new requirement for the 2017-18 school year. According to the new state law, students that have not received the immunization will not meet the mandatory immunization requirement and no grace period to catch-up will be given.
