A Note from Dr. Reynolds
It was so wonderful to see our families at the Fun Run yesterday.
Fifth grade program- students will be able to bring 2 guests per student. If you bring a sibling they will count as a guest. This will be recorded and families will be able to share with all those who couldn’t attend.
Field Day- families can join us outside for field day
Last Day celebrations and 5th grade graduations - 5the grade graduation will be limited to 2 family members. All other grades will be limited to 2 per student for any indoor event. Local mandates or district mandates regarding masks will be followed if applicable at the time of the event.

Nurse Updates
Please continue to monitor your child and consult with your doctor for any symptoms of illness such as fever, chills, headache, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, new loss of taste and/or smell, vomiting or diarrhea. If your child has a fever >100, they must stay home and be fever-free for at least 24 hours without fever-reducing medications before returning to school. Also, as a reminder, if your child is tested for COVID-19, they must remain out of school until the test results come back. Please email or fax the results to me.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
Melanie Shepard, BSN, RN
School Nurse
