Instructional Materials Distribution
May 18 Instructional Packets Ready for Pick Up after 9:00 a.m.
Procedures for Packet Pick-Up
We are asking that parents follow the procedures listed below to ensure the safety of all of our families:
*Wear a non-medical mask, cloth face covering while picking up materials.
*Practice Social Distancing and remain at least 6 feet away from others.
*When picking up packets, try to only touch the packet that you are taking.
Staying Healthy by Practicing Social Distancing
The wellbeing of our students and families is important to us. You can help by talking to your child about healthy practices to prevent the spread of illness such as
Wash your hands frequently
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
Stay home when you are sick.
Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
