NEWEST MASK INFORMATION – IS ANYTHING CHANGING AT SCHOOL?

Currently, the changes announced late this week do not impact us beyond the adjustments we have already made to our current mask policy.  All staff, teachers, and students will continue to wear masks as before while inside the building, during arrival/dismissal and outside if in a learning situation where kiddos are closely together for 10 minutes or more. Masks are optional during recess times.

We are continuing to engage with health department officials and other schools in our area, but expect to operate with these protocols in place until the end of the school year.
