Principal's Message
Pick Up of Student Materials
In order to facilitate parent pick-up of student materials, we will open the building the week of June 1st so that families may pick up items. Some teachers expressed an interest in bagging up student materials so that parents take only what belongs to the student. If you WOULD LIKE TO to bag up your student's materials you can come in and put their items in a labeled bag on top of their desk. You do not have to do this if you do not want to or are not comfortable coming in. Henry and Becky are at school next week Tuesday - Friday from 8:00-1:00 so you can go in anytime during that time. Please email Kayla if there is anything she needs to know to direct parents on those pick up days.
Parents may want to pick up the following items:
Coats
Lunch Boxes
Medication
Report Card (if the family does not have an email address)
We will follow the schedule below to limit the number of parents in the building at a time.
Schedule
Monday, June 1 Track 1 families may pick up student materials between 10:00am-12:00pm.
Tuesday, June 2 Track 2 families may pick up student materials between 10:00am-12:00pm.
Wednesday, June 3 Track 3 families may pick up student materials between 10:00am-12:00pm
Thursday, June 4 Track 4 families may pick up student materials between 10:00am-12:00pm
Families that choose to access the school building for pick up of student materials, are required to wear a face coverings and it is recommended they wear gloves. Additionally, families should limit the size of their group.
Social distancing must be followed while on campus
In some cases, parents may have items they would like to return to the school. Devices, such as hot spots or Chromebooks will only be collected if a student is not returning to a WCPSS school next year. Library books will only be collected if a student is not attending a WCPSS school next year. Rising 6th graders attending a WCPSS school next year will return library books and devices checked out to their middle school. The district will coordinate a process for return when school resumes next year.
Parents need to label the items they are returning. The district is requiring that we keep items returned from families in the school isolated within a room where they can be left undisturbed for 14 days.
We will clearly communicate in the Sunday Message that families do not need to come pick up materials if they or anyone in their home is ill or experiencing any symptoms. We can arrange for a pick up time when they are well.
