“It is with excitement and gratitude that we express our heartfelt thanks to you following a very special Pike Road Fourth of July. Thank you, Pike Road, for sharing your spirit, joy and gratitude throughout our Week of Patriotism celebrations. It was a gift to see your Scavenger Hunt photos, and we hope you enjoyed the art activities and the songs of celebration in our virtual concert. These, along with the Community Cookbook, can be accessed by visiting www.pikeroad.us. Although these were not our traditional activities, you continue to amaze us and embody the spirit that makes the Town of Pike Road such a special place to call home. We have so much to be thankful for in this great country, and our community is one of those many blessings.

Thank you for continuing to be smart and safe as the summer continues. The COVID-19 challenge is present in Montgomery County and across Alabama, and each of us has a responsibility to help stop the spread. It continues to be vital to make thoughtful choices, recognize the risks of large gatherings, and practice social distancing. CDC and ADPH guidance also includes washing your hands frequently and sanitizing high-traffic surfaces like doorknobs, steering wheels, and countertops both at home and at your place of work. We also encourage you to recognize the importance of wearing masks and face coverings in public spaces or when around those who are not part of your household. Making smart, safe choices helps us progress through the ongoing COVID-19 challenge and builds confidence in our community, and we appreciate your efforts to do so.

The Town of Pike Road is not requiring face masks at this time, but we do strongly recommend that everyone wear a face mask in public places, such as grocery stores or businesses, and when interacting with those outside of their household. Face masks and cloth face coverings protect both you and those you come in contact with, and it is important to remember that our actions affect the essential workers and healthcare professionals who continue to serve in our community.

As a reminder, the Town of Pike Road will continue to operate with limited access to our municipal facilities through July 31. As always, our team is available to help you via phone and email, and you can also find a variety of municipal resources on our website, pikeroad.us. If you have pressing business that requires an appointment, please do not hesitate to contact our team. We appreciate your understanding and utilization of digital methods as we continue to prioritize safety and access to municipal services.

We remain involved in all EMA, state and federal discussions to stay aware of recommendations, needs and opportunities as this situation continues. Further, we are engaged with community leaders, schools, churches, and service organizations to ensure we continue to meet the needs of our Town. We will continue to monitor recommendations from the Alabama Department of Public Health and Governor Ivey as it relates to COVID-19. We will share any updates on pikeroad.us.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“The past few months have brought challenging situations to our community and our country, but each day, we have been reminded of our many blessings through the actions of our citizens. Thank you, Pike Road, for supporting and showing love for one another the way that you have. As we move forward, there is no better time to consider and reflect on our actions. We encourage you to intentionally continue to connect with your neighbors, show love, seek to listen, and seek to understand. Together, Pike Road, we can continue to make our town a special and welcoming place to call home.

This week, we are excited to celebrate and recognize a meaningful milestone made possible by the dedication and support of our community: Pike Road Schools’ very first graduating class will receive their diplomas tomorrow, June 6. It is with joy and gratitude that we say congratulations to the Class of 2020! We invite you to participate in this celebration of our community’s schools. Join us this evening at 7 p.m. by stepping outside to make some noise – cheer, shout, honk your horn – from your driveway. Together, let’s send these students into graduation with a show of our support! Tomorrow, you can tune in to a live stream of the graduation ceremony by visiting facebook.com/pikeroadschools.

In the coming weeks, we are excited to provide a variety of virtual and socially distanced ENHANCE events and activities. Next week, Lunch & Learn will make its digital premier with a live webinar, and our Week of Patriotism schedule is available now! This week of activity, leading up to Independence Day, is designed to engage each of our citizens in service, art, local history, and more.

Having face masks available for public outings and practicing good hygiene can help protect yourself and your neighbors.

“Days are getting warmer, and the summer season often brings activity and travel in and around our community.

Utilize digital resources from the Alabama Cooperative Extension System to spruce up your yard, tend to or plant a garden, and learn about our natural surroundings with your family.

“Yesterday, Governor Ivey and the State Health Officer released updated guidelines and opportunities for reopening. As we continue through this next phase of reopening, we want to express our appreciation to our community for the ways you continue to support each other and remain smart, safe, and confident. As a reminder, this includes utilizing resources from trusted sources like the CDC, following guidelines from the Alabama Department of Public Health, recognizing the importance of social distancing, practicing good hygiene, and being respectful of the ways you can help protect yourself and your neighbors in this transition.

As we enter this holiday weekend and experience more opportunities to be out and about, we ask you to be cautious. Please understand the opportunities to help protect yourself, your family, and the greater community. The updated Safer At Home Order, issued on May 21, includes renewed access to leisure and entertainment activities such as movie theaters, athletics, and summer camps. Please explore the social distancing and capacity guidelines related to these activities. Consider having cloth face coverings and essential items like hand sanitizer available to use in public spaces, as well as the risks that are posed by large groups and crowds.

Today, we want to extend a special thank you in honor of the men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. We hope you will take some time this Memorial Day to honor and remember our nation’s fallen heroes. Their service and sacrifice in the name of freedom are not forgotten.

We also encourage you to bear in mind both those who have served and those who continue to serve and protect our communities in every capacity, from overseas action to helping combat the spread of the coronavirus at home. We are so thankful for everyone across our community and our nation who continues to put themselves at risk by going to work in essential businesses to ensure we have access to necessities like food, emergency services, and healthcare.

At this time, the Town of Pike Road will continue to operate with limited access to our municipal facilities. We encourage you to connect with our team via phone and email, and you can also find a variety of municipal resources on our website, pikeroad.us. If you have pressing business that requires an appointment, please do not hesitate to contact our team.

“This week, communities across Alabama saw increased opportunities to frequent local businesses and restaurants. As we continue through this stage of reopening, we want to express our gratitude to our community for the ways you continue to thoughtfully connect with each other and remain smart, safe, and confident. It is important to remain aware of CDC and ADPH guidelines as you utilize opportunities to be out and about, whether you are returning to work, shopping at a local store, or frequenting your favorite restaurant. Please continue to recognize the importance of social distancing, practice good hygiene, and be respectful of the ways you can help protect yourself and your neighbors in this transition.

We want to say a special thank you to our local businesses for the precautions and procedures they are implementing to help keep employees and customers safe. Our gratitude also includes the frontline workers, from farmers to first responders, grocery store teams to healthcare workers, whose daily activities keep our families safe and food on our tables. Throughout this challenge, we have experienced a seamless continuation of service, and, due to the dedicated work of the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, our safety has not wavered. Today, Peace Officers Memorial Day, we are humbled to remember and honor the law enforcement officers who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect the communities they served. We encourage you to take a moment to say thank you to a law enforcement officer and reflect on the selfless service that allows us to live the lives we do today.

On Monday, May 18, the Town of Pike Road team will implement plans to safely return to the office.

“As we continue to follow Governor Ivey’s Safer at Home Order, we appreciate all you continue to do to be smart, safe, and confident in this phase of the COVID-19 challenge. Under the Safer at Home Order, we are thankful to see you continuing to support local businesses. We appreciate your responsible, positive attitudes and willingness to follow the guidelines. The generous, supportive spirit of the Pike Road community has given new meaning to “welcome home.” We are grateful and humbled to see the displays of neighborly care and acts of service from our citizens each day. What you are doing makes a difference.

This week, we had the opportunity to participate in two special celebrations: Teacher Appreciation Day and the National Day of Prayer. Every year, Teacher Appreciation Day is celebrated with a show of support for all the Pike Road Schools team does for our community. In this time of distance learning, the flexibility, resilience and excellence of our teachers continues to shine through as they adjust to safety precautions while meeting the needs of each student. We are honored to take a moment to say thank you for all you do.

Yesterday, to celebrate the National Day of Prayer, we were excited to share words of encouragement and positive messages from several members of our P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team. In communities like ours, we know that people often turn to their churches in difficult times. The P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team, or Pike Road Area Your Emergency Response Team, was formed as part of the ENHANCE Initiative to connect faith leaders from across Pike Road. It is their goal to help ensure we are able to support the physical and spiritual needs of our community in difficult times. We are so thankful for all that our churches continue to do to support the Pike Road community during this ongoing COVID-19 situation. From providing childcare support for healthcare workers to providing and delivering meals for our food-insecure neighbors, the P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team makes a difference. Click here to view the video and learn more about the P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team!

Thank you for your continued confidence in our community and our Town. We have seen a great response from each of you as you continue to connect with the Town of Pike Road team. As we continue to operate remotely, at least through May 15, we want to emphasize that our team is here to help. We are available via phone and email, and we are here to serve you. We encourage you to access the resources available on our website, pikeroad.us, and to continue to connect with us regarding your municipal needs.

“As you know, Governor Kay Ivey issued a Safer at Home Order earlier this week, which is in effect through May 15. As we transition to the Safer at Home phase of the COVID-19 challenge, we encourage you to remember to be smart, be safe, and be confident. We want to say thank you for your willingness to follow the guidelines and requirements, which have allowed us to see progress in this ongoing situation. Also, thank you for your daily expressions of kindness and neighborly support that continue to build confidence in our community.

The Safer at Home Order provides a few updates, including the opening of retail businesses of all sizes, given that business owners implement occupational and social distancing precautions. According to the Safer at Home Order, the guidelines for restaurants, churches, and salons have not changed. However, we appreciate all you continue to do to support our local businesses, participate in serving our neighbors in need, and engaging in virtual worship and fellowship activities.

Note that the guidelines regarding social distancing and avoiding crowds have not changed. Therefore, the Town of Pike Road will continue to operate remotely through May 15. We want to emphasize that our team continues to be open for business. We are available via phone and email, and we are here to serve you.

As we continue life in this time of the COVID-19 challenge, we are grateful for so many things. Our community continues to be smart, stay safe and show confidence. We appreciate you all following the guidelines of Governor Kay Ivey’s Stay at Home Order. Individuals, organizations and businesses continue to connect, serve, and support each other in innovative ways.

We want to thank you for being confident, and we are so appreciative for all the people who build our confidence every day. Through the dedication of our service providers and first responders, our healthcare workers, and the front-line workers, like those providing our food supply from our farmers to our grocery stores, our community continues to receive essential services without interruption. Our local churches continue to find ways for us to worship, and our educators, from our local schools to our universities, continue to make a difference in young peoples’ lives. We encourage you to continue to support our local businesses, connect virtually with friends and family, and participate in the Ribbons of Hope campaign – it is amazing to see bows on mailboxes and doors across the Town of Pike Road!

As a reminder, the 2020 Census is here! Every ten years, the census is used to distribute everything from congressional representation to federal funding for schools and healthcare, access to grants for community programming, and infrastructure projects across the nation. An accurate census count helps ensure our community and our state receive these resources, which help us grow in ways that support every Alabamian. The 2020 Census has 10 questions, and it takes about 6 minutes to complete, but it can affect $13 billion in funding for Alabama. If you have not already filled out your census, we encourage you to visit my2020census.gov and do so today.

Our team continues to operate almost exclusively from home, and our business continuity plan allows us to continue to serve our citizens. Our emails, phone calls and mail services continue to be available. We remain actively involved in all EMA, state and federal discussions, and we are engaged with community leaders, churches, and service organizations to ensure we continue to meet all the needs of our community.

This week marks the first under Governor Kay Ivey’s Stay at Home Order. We are so grateful to see our community following these guidelines in an effort protect each other and show our appreciation for everyone on the front lines of this challenge. This week, our message is one of encouragement: This is a difficult time, but we will get through it together.

Plus, we are taking in Governor Ivey’s Ribbons of Hope campaign, tying bows on our municipal buildings to symbolize hope, love and togetherness in the fight against COVID-19. This Holy Week, we encourage you to do the same – using whatever you have at home, tie a ribbon around a tree, light post, or mailbox in your yard! Essential workers from utility providers to first responders, grocery store teams to the transportation industry, and, of course, everyone in the healthcare profession, continue to work each day to ensure our basic needs are met, and we thank you all. Members of the Pike Road Town Council have also offered words of encouragement to our community, and we are excited to share those with you on our social media.

Thank you to our community for helping us express our love for Pike Road by completing the 2020 Census. This count helps us with our abilities to compete for grants, receive program funding, and do other things that are going to strengthen our community.

We also want to say thank you to those who are finding innovative ways to lead virtual worship opportunities in this Holy Week. It is a very special time for our family, and I know it is a special time for many of our citizens. We will continue to be prayerful for our community, for our friends and our family members, and we want to encourage you to do the same. We hope you have a safe and joyful Easter, and we hope you will continue be safe, be smart about what you do, and be confident that, together, we’ll come through this.

Pike Road is a special place, and, working together, we’ll continue to make it a great hometown.

April 3, 2020: A Note from Mayor Gordon Stone

Click here to view this update as a PDF.

This afternoon, Governor Kay Ivey announced a Stay at Home Order that is effective Saturday, April 4, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. and extends through April 30, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. We recognize the serious consideration that goes into the decision to move forward with this order. Consequently, we understand the desire for all of us to comply and the fact that this order is enforceable by our law enforcement community. The specific details of the order are being defined by both the Alabama Department of Public Health and the Alabama Attorney General's Office. However, it is clear that the order requires for us to stay at home unless the action that we are taking is defined as essential.

We will continue to operate at the Town of Pike Road; however, our employees will be operating almost exclusively from home. Emails, phone calls and mail services will continue to be available to our citizens, and our communications to citizens will also continue. We remain actively involved in all EMA, state and federal discussions as needed. All of the Town’s facilities that were closed until April 12 will now be closed until April 30. While respecting and adhering to the Stay at Home Order, we will continue to assist in maintaining as much normalcy as possible.

In the Town of Pike Road, we are fortunate and blessed that all of our service providers are prepared to continue operations. Our first responders will still be actively engaged in serving the community. Our Pike Road School System has a plan for virtual/distance operations, and our churches are continuing to serve the community through virtual means. Local businesses will continue to serve, and we are encouraged to find creative ways to support them.

The primary purpose of this serious action is to address the issues of health. Keeping each of us, our families, friends and other people in our lives as healthy as possible is the main idea. We ask each and every resident of the Town of Pike Road to recognize the seriousness of the action. The order reinforces the responsibility for all of us to be smart (Trust updates and information from the CDC and ADPH), be safe (Stay at Home, practice social distancing and good hygiene) and be confident (As we walk this path in prayer and faith, we will find strength and support to overcome the challenge.).

As this challenge continues to evolve, we are reminded of the foundations our hometown community was built on: A hospitable community that cares for its neighbors and embodies the “Welcome Home” spirit. Today, we ask you to continue to follow social distancing guidelines, but also to continue to encourage each other in the innovative ways you have shown throughout this difficult time. Pray for each other, support each other, and protect each other.

The Town of Pike Road has strong, resilient people and by working together we will continue to be a special Hometown!

Thank you and God Bless,

Mayor Stone

TOWN OF PIKE ROAD, MONTGOMERY COUNTY ANNOUNCE CURFEW

County-wide Curfew Enhances Public Safety, Protects First Responders, and Provides Clarity Across Community

Pike Road, ALA – On Thursday, April 2, 2020, leadership from the Town of Pike Road, the Montgomery County Commission, and the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office announced a curfew for citizens of both the Town of Pike Road and unincorporated Montgomery County. The curfew is intended as an additional measure to protect the community and stop the spread of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19. Based on social distancing recommendations and local policies, the curfew limits public outings effective tonight, Apr. 2, beginning at 10 p.m. through 5 a.m. The curfew will be in effect every night from 10 p.m. – 5 a.m. until further notice.

“We are imposing this curfew not only to protect the citizens of Montgomery County, but also to protect our first responders who continue to serve and protect our community each day,” said Elton Dean, Montgomery County Commission Chairman.

“Out of appreciation for our first responders and our law enforcement officials throughout Montgomery County, we want to work together and provide continuity to citizens across the County,” said Gordon Stone, Mayor of the Town of Pike Road. “Further, it gives clarity to citizens across Montgomery County to help reinforce the importance of social distancing. This is an opportunity to promote and encourage the self-discipline and behavior that brings about the quickest end to this ongoing challenge.”

“This is something that we would like families to discuss with their children, to make sure they understand this curfew and abide by the rules that we are putting out,” said Derrick Cunningham, Montgomery County Sheriff. “We hope that everyone will follow these rules.”

March 30, 2020: A Letter from Pike Road Schools Superintendent Dr. Chuck Ledbetter

Click here to view this update as a PDF.

Dear PRS family,

As you all are aware, Governor Kay Ivey and State Superintendent of Education Dr. Eric Mackey announced on March 26th that our schools would not physically reopen for students until after June 5th. However, instruction of students may begin again via
distance learning beginning April 6th. This means no in person instruction or services of any kind, be they academics, arts, athletics, clubs, or any other co-curricular activity. It is the highest priority to quell the spread of COVID-19 through reducing interactions that could allow the virus to spread.

Although Pike Road educators are deeply saddened to not be able to spend time together with their classes, they have been working to make sure that the education of our students does not suffer. You will be receiving the Academic Continuity Plan for
your school/schools this afternoon. In it you will find details of how we are going to move forward with teaching and learning for the rest of the year. I ask all to work together in a spirit of patience and perseverance as we refine the process through experience.

Our goal in Pike Road Schools is not to simply do a patch for missed learning, but to truly make the learning opportunities for our students effective and to help them continue on their educational paths. No one is better poised to accomplish this goal than Pike Road Schools! We have been through five years of productive struggle to build a great school system. Our educators are committed to doing what is best to help students learn, and they have demonstrated their flexibility and their resolve repeatedly.

I am confident we will continue our students learning through this time unabated. It is important for our schools, our community, and our senior students that we celebrate our first senior class. Therefore, we are setting a date to have a graduation ceremony
for the Pike Road High School Class of 2020 on June 6th at 9:00 am at the stadium. We will monitor the situation leading up to that date and make plans accordingly.

Finally, thanks to each of you for being part of our family! We will work together through this crisis, we will learn valuable lessons as we do so that will help us grow and improve, and we will come out on the other side of this stronger for having gone through
it. Our mission to think, innovate, and create has never been more appropriate.

We have been teaching to prepare our students for an unknown future all along. Let's employ our critical thinking skills to solve this real world problem and use this as a grand learning opportunity!

Sincerely,

Dr. Charles Ledbetter
Superintendent, Pike Road Schools

The Town of Pike Road continues to encourage our citizens to be safe, be smart, and be confident in the face of the evolving COVID-19 challenge, and we want to say “thank you” to our citizens for all you are doing to protect and encourage the community. It gives us great joy to continue to see you engaging with each other in meaningful ways while practicing social distancing. Your decisions to pray with your neighbors at the end of your driveways, write kind messages in chalk to thank our service providers, and support our local businesses allow the warm hospitality of our community to shine through in this difficult time.

The COVID-19 situation presents a variety of challenges, and we are thankful for the hard work of our service partners, emergency responders, churches, and Pike Road Schools team, as well as the City of Montgomery, Montgomery County, and the Montgomery County EMA, as they collaborate and innovate to meet the needs of citizens. We encourage you to continue to support our local businesses, who are also facing operational changes due to the current circumstances. Our team is in constant communication with each of these partners, and we have updated our website to connect you with our local dining options, our utility and service partners, P.R.A.Y.E.R. (Pike Road Area Your Emergency Response) Team resources, and more.

We want to remind you that, although Town Hall is closed to public access, our team is just a phone call or email away. Please give us a call to learn how we can help with your municipal service needs. We are dedicated to doing everything we can to make sure the Town of Pike Road continues to be the special hometown we love, even in these difficult times.

Thanks and God Bless,

March 26, 2020: A Letter from Pike Road Schools Superintendent Dr. Chuck Ledbetter

Click here to view this update as a PDF.

PRS family,

Alabama Governor Kay Ivey and Alabama State Superintendent of Education Dr. Eric Mackey just concluded a press conference where they announced that schools in Alabama will not physically open for the rest of the school year. We will be allowed to begin E-learning via internet access on April 6th. Our educators have been planning for this for two weeks.

There will be a web meeting for Alabama school superintendents with Dr. Mackey on Friday morning March 27th where we will hear more details about what we will be allowed to do. The Pike Road Schools leadership team will be meeting after the webinar to finalize the plans we have been working on.

Pike Road Schools will communicate our plans for e-learning on Monday, March 30th. PRS is committed to the success of every child at Pike Road Schools and meeting the diverse needs of all of our learners. We are focused on eliminating gaps in learning that could occur due to this unique situation. The PRS team looks forward to working together to help our students complete
this school year.

Pike Road Schools has long awaited graduating its first senior class. This pandemic has thrown us a curve, but be assured we are planning ways to not only get all of our seniors graduated, but also to celebrate their accomplishments as the first seniors of Pike Road City Schools.

Thank you for your continued support of Pike Road Schools! Never has there been a time more appropriate for our motto to be implemented: "Think, Innovate, Create".

May God bless you and Pike Road Schools through all of this.

Dr. Chuck Ledbetter
Superintendent, Pike Road Schools

March 24, 2020: Municipal Facilities & Recycling Reminder

We are excited about the enthusiastic interest our community continues to show regarding recycling in the Town of Pike Road. Out of an abundance of caution for the health of both potential users of the recycling facility and the employees who are responsible for maintaining it, the Town of Pike Road’s Recycling Depot is included in the current municipal facility closures. The Town of Pike Road’s current policy, announced on March 18, 2020, effectively restricts public access to municipal facilities through April 12, and our team continues to work closely with local, county and state partners to evaluate closures following Apr. 12. We understand the inconvenience this policy creates for our citizens, and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to combat the spread of COVID-19 together.

March 23, 2020: A Letter from Pike Road Schools Superintendent Dr. Chuck Ledbetter

Click here to view this update as a PDF.

Dear PRS family,

Welcome back from Spring Break, even though we are not physically back in the classroom. Currently all preK-12 schools in Alabama are closed until April 6th. Closed means we cannot provide instruction that is for credit. Following Governor Kay Ivey’s State of Emergency order to close schools for an extended period, our leadership team began preparing for a number of
contingencies.

Our educators have been preparing and planning for this possibility for over two weeks. We will be offering enrichment learning activities as allowed by the Alabama State Department of Education so that learning does not stop. The learning gap caused by this worldwide health emergency is small for Pike Road Schools. We are uniquely poised to help our learners through electronic, on-line medium and can engage them in learning the standards appropriate to their grade level.

You will be hearing from your respective schools right away to verify that you have internet access at home. We will help facilitate temporary internet access to anyone who doesn't have access during the school facility shutdown period. Our plans are in place to move forward with e-learning for credit should the state allow it during the shutdown. We will send you more information about those plans as soon as we have the approval from the Alabama State Department of Education.

To assist learners and lead learners while working from home our Information Technology (IT) department will be providing support services via help desk tickets. Should you have needs, please contact itsupport@pikeroadschools.org and put in a request for help. They will get back to you with help in a timely fashion. The IT department will be working on help issues Monday-Fridays from 10 am until 2 pm. The remainder of their time will be spent troubleshooting issues and supporting our lead learners as they transition their class to an online format.

The Pike Road School System is committed to keeping our community safe, getting our seniors graduated, and helping all of our students to continue to learn and progress so that their learning is not interrupted by this world health crisis. I pray that you all are healthy and handling the changes this crisis has brought about. Thank you in advance for working with us as we get all of this going and work the kinks out. If you need my assistance, please call me on my cell at 334-714-1679.

Dr. Chuck Ledbetter
Superintendent, Pike Road Schools

Click here to view this update as a PDF.

The Town of Pike Road is providing you with the below information relative to municipal operations during the developing COVID-19 challenge with the simple goal of keeping our residents informed on local issues. It has been, and continues to be, our plan to encourage smart, safe and confident responses as we continue to face this challenge together.

The Town of Pike Road is actively working with leaders in the public and private sectors across Montgomery County, including the City of Montgomery, the Montgomery County Commission, and the Montgomery County Emergency Management Agency. Through our work with the EMA, we have been fortunate to have regular updates from local health agencies and providers of care. Further, we have each issued a state of local emergency proclamation, so as to quickly access additional resources if needed.

We are in touch with all of our utility partners, first responders, and Pike Road Schools leadership. Each organization has developed a response plan and has engaged a regular dialogue. It is clear that each is committed to safety, meeting needs, and maintaining quality response levels. We are especially appreciative of their commitment to serve and care for both citizens and their employees.

We have a dedicated team at the Town of Pike Road. Each member has been actively engaged in designing a multiple level plan of response. The Town has a strategy for immediate implementation, which calls for limiting access to public facilities. We are asking all who desire to conduct business to utilize an online or phone-in approach. We have closed public facilities to external activities through April 12, and we will continue to evaluate the date as circumstances change. To stay abreast of any changes to operational procedures, please visit www.pikeroad.us. To access our digital resources, please click here.

In closing, I have a deep belief in the power of prayer. With the strength and blessing of God, we will continue to be diligent. We will also work to make the best possible information available to our citizens. Thank you to all who are engaged in a smart, safe, and confident manner. Please remember that the CDC and ADPH provide great guidance, and we encourage personal attention to the recommendations for social distancing and public gatherings. We appreciate each of you. The Town of Pike Road is blessed to have a great future because of the people who make it such a special place to call home.

Thanks and God Bless,

March 13, 2020: A Letter from Pike Road Schools Superintendent, Dr. Chuck Ledbetter

Click here to view this update as a PDF.

Pike Road Schools family,

We are going through an unprecedented time now as the world responds to the threat of a new, highly contagious infectious disease, COVID-19, or Coronavirus. The health and welfare of our students, employees, and community are our highest priority, and we are making decisions accordingly.

We are following the guidelines of the Center for Disease Control, the Alabama State Department of Education, and the Alabama Department of Public Health. We are communicating with them regularly and adjusting our plans according to their directives.

I am cancelling all school trips that are scheduled through the end of April. We will work vigorously to get deposits returned from vendors for field trips that have been paid in advance. We will continue to monitor events and make a determination about possible trips for the rest of this school year by early April.

We will continue to follow the directives of the Alabama High School Athletic Association concerning sports. Pike Road Schools teams will not attend any out of state sporting events until further notice.

Spring break arrives at a good time for us as we have a few days next week to see how COVID-19 is spreading and to adjust to the reactions to it. Several states have closed schools, and by the end of next week we should know a lot more about Alabama’s response and how it will effect schools.

I hope that you have an enjoyable, safe spring break, take prudent precautions to prevent the spread of germs, and enjoy a respite from schoolwork. We appreciate your thoughts and prayers as we continue to adjust to this fluid situation.

Sincerely,

Chuck Ledbetter, Ed. D.
Superintendent
