Car Rider Update
If you use the car rider line for drop-off or pick-up, you may have noticed that some days the line doesn’t move so smoothly. We’ve noticed it as well. If at all possible, we would appreciate it if during car rider drop-off and pick-up (7:25-7:45 and 2:05-2:25 daily) everyone would make right turns. I know there are some of you who need to travel south from school, but left turns often cause hold ups in the line, delaying everyone. For those of you who need to travel south, you might consider using South Street to Fishers Pointe Boulevard, which will take you back to Lantern Road.

Encourage your child to offer to share items at home. For example, have them help you make a snack and then offer to share it with other family members. Encourage them to offer hugs to family members or friends when they are tired or sad or need encouragement.”
First Grade

COVID Self Reporting
The COVID-19 Self-Reporting Form, found on the hseschools.org, has been updated!
· The online form now allows you to provide the information nurses need to calculate a timeline of return for your student after a COVID situation arises.
· Once the COVID-19 Self-Reporting Form is completed, you will receive an email with the date of return for your student along with helpful information about their return to school.
· If you use the form, you do not need to call or email the nurse, building and/or teacher to inform them, your online submission will take care of that.
· If additional information is needed, the school nurse may reach out to you.
We believe using this new COVID-19 Self-Reporting Form will assist our school nurses and buildings in communication efficiency, and will save you time as well.
Thank You!
