URGENT MESSAGE DURING CORONA CRISIS

2022-2023

Dear Families and students,

The nurses would like to remind you that we are here to assist our students and families through this challenging time.   

In order to best support all of our families, it is important for you to please let us know if your child is ill and unable to participate in distance learning.  This helps us to track illness within our community and to be sure we are meeting the academic needs of our students. 

You may email your school nurses directly. 

Meanwhile remember the answer to this health crisis is working together, following guidelines, and keeping up to date with those health guidelines.  We will be posting updates on the district web site called COVID 19.

Be well!

Dorothy Mitchell and Amanda D'Urso
