WRS Walk Your Schedule 2021
Welcome Back Paladins!
Notes from Mr. Dietz
Hello Sundling Families,
It was an awesome start to the 2021-22 school year. It was great to see and reconnect with many of our students and families at Walk Your Schedule on Tuesday, followed up by the first day of classes on Wednesday. The students are slowly getting adjusted to the pace of junior high with lockers, hallways, and lunch periods, but are doing a great job. Within a week or two, it will be second nature, and they will never know anything different! It has been a productive and energetic three days so far, and we hope it carries on through the remainder of the school year.
Just as we did last year, students were provided a lanyard with a self-certification card including symptoms as well as a signature card for you, the parent/guardian, to sign each morning verifying that your child is symptom and fever-free. We will have adults greet that at the door each morning to verify self-certification.
As a reminder, staying home when sick or symptomatic is one of our Safe 6 mitigations as we kick off the new school year. Everyone should stay home when they have signs of COVID-19. All students must self-certify that they are free of COVID-19 symptoms (listed below) and a fever each day before entering our buildings and school buses.
Symptoms Include:
-Fever (100.4°F or higher);
-New onset of moderate to severe headache;
-Shortness of breath;
-New cough;
-Sore throat;
-Vomiting or diarrhea;
-New loss of sense of taste or smell;
-Fatigue from unknown cause; and/or
-Muscle or body aches from unknown causes.
Staying home when sick helps us reduce the spread of COVID-19 and other illnesses in our schools and allows individuals to recover more quickly.
If you have questions, please reference the Return to Learn, Reconnect, and Re-Engage Plan.
