Important Information:

Mask Use

You may have heard that the CDC now says it is safe for fully vaccinated people to take their masks off in most indoor settings. The agency was not specific about the wearing of masks in some settings, including schools.  Additionally, the CDC advice does not override mask orders issued by states, counties, or cities. Therefore, students and staff will continue with our mask expectations:

• Wear a mask that covers the nose and mouth on the bus and in the school, other than during scheduled mask breaks and while seated eating breakfast and lunch. Please remind your children that masks need to cover their nose.
• Mask breaks will be provided by teachers throughout the day during seated, independent work time.
• If a student forgets a mask, the district has disposable masks to provide.

If anything changes at the school level regarding masks, we will certainly let you know! Thank you. 

Positivity Project:  This is the final week in the 2020-2021 P2 Calendar. We are focusing on the Other People Mindset. This mindset consists of the five elements intended to help people understand ways to build positive relationships in their lives: identifying and appreciating the good in others, knowing my words and actions affect others, supporting others when they struggle, cheering others' successes, and being present and giving others my attention.
