BES Principal Newsletter
August 26, 2022
Good evening BES families!
Byron Area Schools understand that virtual learning is not the typical mode of instruction, but we feel that it's an important skill to have in an ever-evolving world. The need to adapt to virtual settings, both planned and unplanned, is an essential skill for students to have. Our hope is that our students and staff are always prepared for the unexpected, while preparing our students to be productive citizens in the 21st century.
Our attendance line is not accepting messages right now, so please call 810.266.4671 and leave a message if your student will be absent. Thank you again for your support and have a great weekend!
Educationally,
Mrs. Johnson

Hey parents! Below is our K-2 Bathroom Etiquette video courtesy of Mrs. Kacel's first graders. Watch and discuss with your SOARING eagle!
Current COVID Guidance
We have received updated School COVID Guidance from the Shiawassee Health Department. If a student tests positive for COVID-19, he/she must isolate at home for five days before returning to school. Per this guidance, day “zero” begins the first day of symptoms or the positive test day, whichever comes first. As an example, if I begin symptoms on a Monday, and test positive Wednesday, my day zero is Monday. Therefore, I isolate at home through Saturday, and may return to school that upcoming Monday. Full guidance, along with additional recommendations, can be found here. *Please note that medical documentation will be required in order for isolation/quarantine absences to be coded as "medical" and not be considered unexcused when determining truancy.
