Measles Info
Greetings Parents,
With the recent outbreak of measles in the Williston area, we are sending this message to make you aware of what is happening. We have had questions about students going to the circus since the circus has moved from Williston to Minot. It is the parent's choice as to whether you want to send your child or not. We are providing this information to inform you so you can make the best decision for your child.
Additionally, should the outbreak make it's way to Velva Public School, any students who have not received an MMR vaccine would not be allowed to attend school in person for the duration of the outbreak as per North Dakota Public Health.
