Notes from Dr. Miller......
Good Day Gompers Families,
During these unprecedented times, our school district is committed to the safety and security of students.
Why 5-week closure?
Much deliberation was taken into account for the closure of LBUSD schools for five-week. Many districts have gone with lesser time but LBUSD in aligned with local, state and global health official's recommendations.
You may be asking what about my child's learning?
Additional Information about the district's response regarding student learning will be coming later this week. The district's Office of Curriculum and Profesional Development is working to ensure our student's learning program continues. The vast and varying needs to support "all" student learning programs in our traditional face to face format with the teacher in classrooms "may" be altered to an online platform(s). More specific information will be forthcoming by the end of the week (3/20).
Cleaning of school
Custodial crews have been given additional training and cleaning instructions by the health department for all bathrooms, classrooms, and high traffic/use areas.
Student meals for breakfast and lunch available:
1). Breakfast and Lunch are available to all children ages 1-18
2). Students can go to the school closest to their home and not necessarily the school of attendance
3) The meals are set as a "grab and go", and not for eating in the cafeteria. No supervision is a part of the meal service.
Lastly, our district and school precautions with Coronavirus Resources
LBUSD is currently distributing the following items via our various channels, including web, email, and social media:
Coronavirus (COVID-19) Resources
An Ounce of Prevention on School Threats
As updates continue to unfold, the school district will send updates and I will send messengers via our weekly GATOR BULLETIN/Special UPDATES: email, text, and audio as it specifically relates to GOMPERS.
Let us all remain safe and healthy, abiding by the directives and or precautionary measures of our federal, state and local and officials.
Wishing peace to all.....
Respectfully & With Kids in Mind, Dr. Miller
