Gallatin R-V School and Community Members,
The administration, staff, and students at Gallatin R-5 want to start by thanking everyone for their support during these difficult times. After months of not having school activities we are excited to be going back to school and having activities again. It is our goal to keep our students, staff, and community safe while also enjoying the activities we love.
As of today, August 25, 2020, our plan is to allow all fans to attend our fall home athletic contests. This decision is subject to change, based upon information we receive from our local Health Department. We do not have control over what other schools choose to do for their home contests. We will communicate with each school and their plans and let you know as soon as possible.
