Chromebooks - The ISBE stance on opening school is that we may open in the Fall of 2020 if we can follow the CDC guidelines to open schools or schools must start school year with Remote Learning. Currently, the CDC guidelines are so strict that is impossible to start up school typically with students in attendance. Until we get the green light from the Governor and the State Superintendent that we may start school with students in attendance, then students will use their current Chromebooks to begin the year. QNS can only take all of the computers off the network or they physically have to touch each computer to take it off the network. Because of this, then no machines that were on the network last year to include seniors' may be power washed at this time. The moment we get the green light to be able to have students attend school, then we will take all Chromebooks off our network and they can be power washed.
Thank You for Your Patience,
Mr. McKinney

Some of you are going to want the video(s) as a keepsake and if you do a little research in Google you can find out how to download a Youtube video. This is the only way we could do it because of the size of the file.
Take Care,

Hi All,
I had a wonderful time w/ seniors today. I thought they would enjoy a parade where all of them were like the Homecoming court. Nice to get to see each one of them one more time as they individually walked for graduation. It wasn't completely normal, but it worked out!
Attention 2020 Graduates: anyone who has not gone through the procession at the HS may come at any time...thanks!
Congratulations to our seniors Faith Statton, Justyne Lane-Mitchell, Taylor Sarnes. All three of these ladies are excellent role models and athletes. We will miss you. Good luck and know you will always have a place with the Lady Ducks.
Just a few of the reasons why I love teaching. Congratulations to the Class of 2020!
Sending a big shout out to our Senior Volleyball players! Tomorrow is your day!! We are so proud of you! Your achievements on and off the volleyball court have been amazing! Good luck to all of you in your next adventure. We 💚 you! Go Ducks! 🏐🦆 #classof2020
Can't wait to get back to my students and spend time with my excellent paras. Miss all our good times.
