Dear Altadena Eliot Arts Families,
I hope you've had a wonderful winter break full of rest and rejuvenation with those you love. I too have had a fabulous couple weeks that included trips to Big Bear and the Pacific Northwest as well as lots of time with our grown kids and old friends. I have missed seeing everyone and I'm excited to get back to campus tomorrow as we welcome our almost 900 students back to school!
Parents, please make sure to use the Covid test kit provided to you on the last day of school in December before you bring your child back to school. You may test your student/s Sunday night or Monday morning before sending them to school. Please see the flyer below from the Pasadena Public Health Dept. on when to test. The attached PDF has live links with important information. Even if your child tests negative but are experiencing symptoms, please keep him/her home.
Tuesday we have our elementary SSC meeting at 3 pm and our join PT(S)A meeting at 6 pm. The PT(S)A meeting will either be virtual or rescheduled to keep everyone safe and healthy. A separate notice will go out to keep parents informed.
Peter Pan rehearsal begins Monday at 1:30 pm at the middle school. All cast members should report to the auditorium and be ready to go at 1:30 pm. We are working on a way to walk elementary students over. Please stay tuned.
Reminder to middle school parents. We still have a dress code, please do not send students to school in pajamas. Order your Husky Wear by clicking on the live link.
