This year, all students are attending school in-person, 5 full days a week. As guidelines and protocols change throughout the year, we will continuously update our COVID-19 Protocols & Guidelines Q&A Document.

Below are specific categories that received updates since the last District Dish was sent out. You can see those specific updates by clicking the links below and reading the Q’s & A’s in orange. The date of the change is always listed as well.

• COVID-19 Symptoms & Isolations Guidelines

That document and all other COVID-19 related topics can be found on the COVID-19 Hub section of our website: www.sd25.org/COVID19.

For the 2021-22 school year, SHIELD testing will not take place on the following non-attendance days:

• November:
  22nd, 23rd, 24th, 25th, 26th
• December:
  20th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th, 27th, 28th, 29th, 30th
• January:
  3rd, 17th

Please note this is only through January 2022. There may be additional non-attendance days where SHIELD testing will not take place after January 2022. We will highlight them in a future Dish.

The District 25 COVID-19 Dashboard is now live and available to access on our website under the COVID-19 hub (www.sd25.org/COVID19) or by clicking here. This Dashboard will report weekly, on Mondays, the positive COVID-19 cases per school from the past week, as well as the positive case trend district-wide for the year. This Dashboard is also reporting the District's SHIELD testing data.

These two friends spent some time during class charting their emotions throughout the day as a part of the Social-Emotional Learning Lesson District 25 has adopted called RULER.

Our teachers teach from a personal place. #d25ItsPersonal has become a way for our teachers and staff to share daily occurrences, and reasons why they do what they do for a living and why it's fulfilling, right here in District 25. Here is a look at a few tweets that show our staff's personal side!
