IMPORTANT COVID-19 Update
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Today we learned of two positive COVID-19 cases in our building. In consultation with the Department of Health and our Medical Inspector, we will be switching to full time remote home instruction effective immediately. We anticipate resuming the hybrid model on November 12th (A day).
We will keep you up-to-date with any changes or schedule modifications. Students should follow the same schedule as they would on their hybrid day. Students in Cohort B will be able to pick up materials on Tuesday from 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM at the school.
Thank you for your assistance.
We are getting our classrooms ready for our students!
To comply with health guidelines, students will not be sitting in pairs. The desks are grouped according to A day and B day to promote social distancing.
