Celebrating Hispanic Heritage
Next week, we will send out special newsletters to highlight the culture, music, traditions and achievements that our students are exploring in the classrooms.
Welcome, Ms. Baily!
Thank you to the students and staff for their patience over the last 5 weeks. It took a village to figure out the technology devices, book system, and continue SHINE Lab for students. We are thrilled to have Ms. Baily here to pull it all together.

Health & Safety
Covid Protocols continue to change as our community needs change. Please refer to the tool kits below to find the latest information and explanations of safety protocols. Our district uses these tool kits to help develop safety protocols for our schools. (Please remember that all the board meeting videos are available on our district website.)
Students should stay home, even with a negative test result, if they have vomiting or diarrhea or a fever. They may return with a negative test result and 24 hours after no longer vomiting, diarrhea or fever without the aid of medication.
**Preschool guidelines are different than school aged guidelines, including symptoms. Please see the symptom list below.
We are going back to some of our spring protocols for deep cleaning and sanitizing in an effort to be proactive in preventing the spread of germs. Please help us keep it safe by:
- washing or sanitizing your child's backpack periodically
- keeping coats and sweaters clean
- washing or wiping down any items your child brings to school (i.e. water bottles)
Thank you for your help with keeping it safe at our school.

We need GREAT people!
Asheville City Schools has several instructional assistant vacancies at the elementary level for the 2021-2022 school year. Visit https://www.applitrack.com/asheville/onlineapp/default.aspx for details.
These positions are full time positions with benefits (i.e. state retirement, sick days, paid time off, health insurance, and access to supplemental insurance). The best part is you have the opportunity to have a positive impact on children every day.
We are still in need of the following positions:
- academic support assistants
- cafeteria workers
- instructional assistants
- substitutes
Many schools across our district are struggling with finding new staff to fill positions and we are no exception. Until those positions are filled, please allow grace to our staff as we all fill in to make sure that everything is taken care of for our students. Thank you!
