Classroom Celebration Snacks Many parents have been asking if they can send snacks in for their students birthday, a holiday, etc. Last year and up until this point this year, students have not been aloud to bring in treats for the whole class. We as a district have decided to remove this ban on students bringing in treats. There are some restrictions, so please be sure things you send in are actually aloud. Anything brought in for the class should be store bought, with the ingredient list still attached. Treats will be given to the teacher. The teacher will clean hands then wear gloves to pass out the treat to each student. Please do not send treats with nuts. You can also ask your students teacher if any of the students have food allergies to be sure you send a treat that all students in the class can enjoy. | Mask!! Masks are still required to wear at school at this time. Many students are arriving to school without a mask. Please try to remember to send your student to school with a mask each day. For younger students, it may be helpful to send an extra mask in a ziploc for them to keep in their backpack. Masking wearing, as well as watching your distance, and washing your hands continues to be extremely effective methods against spreading COVID-19. If you are unable to afford masks for your student, please contact me and we will provide your student with cloth reusable masks. These should be washed at the end of the day before wearing again. | COVID-19 Testing We are excited to announce that O'Hare labs will be working with D6 to offer weekly testing to all students. Test kits will be supplied to program participants once a week. The test is a cheek swab only. They will be sent home with the student and administered by the parent or under parental supervision. The test is then put into the provided bag and sent back with the student to school. Parents will have access to a results portal to view the students test results. Since the test is a PCR test, results can take a couple days to come back. Parent/Guardian must sign their student up for this program if they wish to participate. More information on signing up will be available on our district website next week. |
