Hello Tyson Family! Remember that this is a LIVE newsletter, check back now and then to see updates! Hope you are having a great day!
Dear Tyson Families,
Do you know that ASD will be striving to have "ASD Symptom Free” when students are back to in-building school? This means your child or children may need to stay home and isolate or quarantine due to illness or COVID-19 exposure.
Do you understand what these terms mean? If not yet, check out the information on the ASD or CDC websites. If your child is sick, keep them home.
Does your child know how to wear their mask and wash their hands properly?
I recommend lots of practice at home, so they are ready for in-building school.
Does your child have cold weather gear like coats, snow pants, boots, gloves, hats? Due to COVID-19, outdoor activities and exercise may be increased during school hours. Please be sure your children are ready for Alaska weather and label their belongings to help prevent loss.
ASD also has numerous vaccine clinics scheduled. The first of Saturday of the month is a free shot clinic for children 1 year of age to 18 at Providence Hospital 3340 Providence Dr. Tower A, #351. The third Saturday of the month at Regional Hospital 2801 Debarr Rd Building E.
Did you submit your Religious Exemption form or updated vaccine records for this school year? All ASD students, even virtual should keep vaccinations up to date. Exemption forms are still being requested even if your child is a virtual student.
Thank you. Be well
Nurse TJ

ACS has now made the following school parking lots into Wi-fi hotspots that can be used from within vehicles. The schools are; Begich, Clark, Hanshew, Eagle River High, East High, Dimond High, and West High. The public can use the service by connecting to the network named "ConnectWithACS."
Good Afternoon,
Parents and guardians of K-2nd grade students, if you have not had a moment to complete the "Intentions for School Return" survey please take a moment to give your response.
Here is the message sent out last week: The Anchorage School District is sending a survey to all families. The purpose of the survey is to capture the intent of those planning to change instructional programs as ASD prepares for face-to-face learning for our PreK-2 students on November 16.
Please take this survey to assist us in planning: Parent Survey: Intentions for School Return
Thank you,
ASD Virtual Team
