From the Middle EMS and ELA
News from the Principal, January 15, 2021
Hello Parents and Families,
What an amazing first week we had back in-person!
Students and staff are so happy to be back in person. We were excited to welcome 40 new students to in-person learning for semester two, and we continue to maintain all our health and safety measures so that we can remain in-person.
We appreciate students' efforts with mask wearing, social distancing, and cleanliness while in the building. Each person contributes to ensuring a safe and healthy environment, and we still find ways to keep school feeling "normal," welcoming, engaging, and fun.
Just a reminder that we do not have school on Monday, January 18th to observe Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.
Read below regarding our updates for the week.
If at any time you need anything, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Englewood Schools uses four metrics (with Arapahoe County data) to determine if we must shift from In-Person learning to Remote learning. These metrics are based on science, facts and the best interests of our students and staff.
In the event the district calls a delay start to school, the building will open 90 minutes later than usual. Linked here is the delay start schedule for both EMS and ELA.
