Please review the memo sent out last week for more information on School Council nominations and this process if you would like more details.
Remote/In-Person Transition: Parents/guardians will be able to submit their intention to choose between remote and in-person school programs starting Monday, October 5 through a form in the Parent Portal. The first transition date, originally communicated as October 13, is delayed and will begin November 3. Many factors contributed to this decision, including the staggered start, the significant demand for remote learning, the additional time needed to assess school level space in order to maintain physical distancing, and the anticipated number of changes to student and staff class assignments.
Please continue to monitor and screen all students before sending them to school each day. Click on the link below for the the most updated screening tool.
