Gilbert Community School District is preparing to welcome all students back to their classrooms on August 27 using appropriate COVID-19 mitigation strategies. We will be working closely with Story County and IA Dept. of Public Health and following recommendations from the Center for Disease Control and American Academy of Pediatrics. Our planning also provides options for on-line instruction should the need arise due to health concerns related to COVID-19.
