It's the first day of spring! We hope our Vikings are enjoying their spring break.


Happy St. Patrick's Day!


Wishing all of our Van Duyn Vikings a safe and relaxing Spring Break! We'll see you on Monday, March 25th.


If you have been in our building this week, you have had the chance to use our new sign-in/sign-out system. We will no longer be using paper forms. There is an iPad kiosk on the SRO desk. Starting Monday, March 25th, anyone coming into the building for any reason (visit, drop students off, pick students up, etc.), will need to bring a state-issued ID (driver's license or ID card). Visitors will scan the bar code on the back of their ID and then answer a few questions regarding the reason for their visit.
If you come in without your ID, you will be instructed to see the SRO or the front office to be checked in. Upon your first visit, it will prompt you to take a photo. This will only happen upon your initial visit.
Please share this information with any family members who may need to come into the building.
Please be patient with us as this is new to us as well and we are learning right along with you.

Save the date! Our Scholastic Book Fair will be April 1-5 in the Library at Van Duyn. Family Book Fair Shopping Night will be Friday, April 5 from 5:00-6:30 p.m.

📘Read Across America Day 2024
📕What a great experience for our students! #ReadAcrossAmerica


Good afternoon! Per the CDC and Vermillion County Health Department, testing positive for COVID will no longer require a 5-day isolation. COVID will now be treated like all other respiratory viruses and return to work and school will now be based on symptoms and/or symptom improvement, along with being fever-free for 24 hours without the use of medication.
*If you are symptomatic and test positive for COVID, you can return to normal activities when, for at least 24 hours, you have started to feel better and your overall symptoms are improving. As with any virus, you should also be fever free for 24 hours without the use of medication before returning to school.
Taking additional precautions for 5 days upon return, such as masking and distancing, should be considered but will not be required.
Hope you all have a great weekend!
