MISD Families,
Based on current COVID-19 information available for Murray/Calloway County, the Murray Independent School District will require face masks/coverings indoors when students (K-12) return to our respective campuses on Thursday, August 12. Also per state mandate, face masks/coverings are required at all times when using school transportation. Universal masking applies to all individuals, including visitors, vaccinated and unvaccinated. Face masks/coverings are not required outdoors.
Murray Independent Schools look forward to providing in person instruction to students for five days per week during the 2021-2022 academic year. In person instruction is the most effective approach to address the academic and social-emotional needs of our students.
MISD encourages everyone eligible for a COVID-19 vaccine to strongly consider and partake after consultation with your healthcare provider. The vaccines are our best defense for a safe and healthy school year.
Important Dates for students:
August 12 First Day for students K-12
August 19 Preschool classes begin
Daily Symptoms Check

The Murray Independent District will continue to monitor on a regular basis the COVID-19 data and guidance from local, state, and national health sources to determine mask protocols for students P-12 and staff.
Thank you,
Coy D. Samons, Superintendent
