We know the value of in-person learning and must make every effort to increase in-person learning which parallels the Governor’s message. We are hopeful that as many of our students as possible will return to in-person learning at the beginning of the fourth nine weeks, March 29, 2021.
Our diligent safety protocols will remain in place. During the day all students and staff will social distance, wear masks, wash hands frequently, and sanitation of classrooms and surfaces throughout the building will be conducted. Extenuating circumstances to consider staying in a remote learning environment may include medical concerns (Covid-related) or evidence of high academic achievement in the remote platform.
