Outdoor Lab Covid 19 Testing & Consent Link
We are getting ready and excited for our Manning students to attend Outdoor Lab from Tuesday, May 17th through Friday, May 20th!
To attend outdoor lab, all students must be Covid 19 tested on Monday, May 16th. Mobile Health will be at Manning on Monday, May 16th from 8am to 1pm to test all 6th grade students attending outdoor lab. We have built a schedule for this day and will send students down in groups to be tested during this timeframe.
IMPORTANT!!!!! All parents will need to read and sign the consent form by Friday, May 13th! If you do not sign this consent form, your child will not be tested, and consequently, will not attend outdoor lab.
Below you will see two links one in English and one in Spanish. We advise you sign the consent written in your home language. Click on the appropriate link:
