Students, Safety & Success
Reopening Schools to In-Person Instruction
We all have heard the announcements made at federal, state and local levels regarding COVID safety practices. As a reminder, school protocols are governed by Dept of Health and Labor & Industries. We work daily to review changing practices and state guidance (see list below), but the safety of our students and staff is our top priority. Despite what might seem as unclear guidance, safety protocols for schools have remained relatively unchanged. Masks and distancing are still required.
Our county is still monitoring case and hospitalization rates. We need your support as we bring the year to a close by reminding students about the importance of following the safety protocols both at school and in the community and keeping a student home if they are ill.
