Hybrid Student Health Certification
If you have not completed the Covid Safety Acknowledgement and received your red lanyard and health certification slips, your student will not be able to enter the building until that is completed.
This decision making matrix from the Illinois Department of Public Health was also distributed at the supply pickup. This is the tool that we will use to help determine if and when a student will need to stay home from school or quarantine. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Mr. Timmins
Arrival/Dismissal
Important things to note:
- The playgrounds will be closed during arrival and dismissal. Please do not bring any equipment (balls, frisbees, etc.) to play with before school starts.
- Students should go immediately to their class dot and stay on it until the class is brought inside.
- Parents that are walking with students can wait on the grass area. In order to keep everyone spaced 6 feet apart, parents should not wait with their student on the blacktop.
- Please keep pets away from students.
