Principal's Message
We had out Baker's Best Virtual Assembly this week and honored those students who personify grit- a combination of passion and perseverance for a singularly important goal. This year more than any other year, our students have really had to show grit and persevere through tough times, their learning, and change. I have been so impressed with our students, and I am very proud of our grit honorees this month!
Baker's Best Assembly Links
Our Spring Book Fair is April 12th-16th. There will be an opportunity for students to shop in the library this semester. Here is more information about the Book Fair.
Spring pictures are scheduled for Wednesday, April 21st for both in-person and virtual learners. There will be more information to come regarding pictures.
As always, please let us know if we fall short of communicating with you. We want this to be a partnership for your child to succeed!
Sincerely,
Ashley Gannon
Principal, Baker Elementary
COVID-19 Screener
If your child is learning in person, please make sure to go through the Screener questions each day. Here is the link to the Screener. If your child tests positive has been exposed to a COVID positive individual, or has one or more of the symptoms on the screening questionnaire, use the link at the bottom of the questionnaire to notify the school nurse and do NOT send your child to school until receiving clearance to return from the school nurse.
*If your child has a chronic condition that presents as one of the symptoms on the screening questionnaire, it is recommended that you contact the school nurse and your child's teacher about the chronic symptom so that both of these key school personnel are aware.

Students Having Lunch with their Families
When you come, you will check in with Ms. Flores in the front office. Your child will be in the office, and you will go eat outside. Once the 30 minutes are over, you will escort your child back into the building. Please be timely because we will need to clean the tables, and your child will want to go to recess. You cannot attend recess. If the weather is bad, you can sit in your car with your child or you may try to sign up for another day.
Your child will not be checked out of school, but if you are taking your child home please let Ms. Flores know, so she can check him/her out.
Here is the sign-up for the first three weeks. There are still some spots left in most grade levels. Please make sure to sign-up for your child's lunch.
