Friday Notes
Second August Edition
Health and Safety
Here's what you need to know:
- If a student is presenting with mild symptoms, the decision to test (with parent permission) or return to class will be made by our school nurse, based upon her clinical decision-making. Mild symptoms include runny nose or nasal congestion, minimal cough, and absence of fever in an individual with no current or recent household exposure to COVID-19.
- If a student is not well enough to learn or participate, regardless of whether he or she is tested for COVID-19, he or she will be sent home from school. A student who is sent home due to illness may be required to wear a mask while awaiting pick-up. The student may return to school if symptoms have improved and the student meets school criteria for return. COVID-19 testing will not be required for symptomatic students to return to school.
- If a student has confirmed COVID-19, he or she will follow the Vermont Department of Health isolation guidance.
Construction Update
Here's what you need to know:
- On the first day of school for your student, please feel free to accompany your student to his/her homeroom after we take your first day of school family picture.
- After the first day of school, K-8 students (parents/caregivers are welcome to enter, too) will enter through the K-8 main entrance. If students arrive before 7:50, they will proceed down to the ASP room, located in the PK wing of the school. If students arrive after 7:50, they will proceed directly to their homerooms. REMINDER: PK students enter through the PK wing, beginning at 7:45 am and report directly to their homerooms.
- Meals (breakfast and lunch) will be delivered to classrooms and students will eat in classrooms, just like last year.
- PE classes will take place outdoors or in the ASP space in the PK wing of the school.
- We will hold Mass outdoors on Wednesdays and will stream to classrooms on inclement weather days.
- We will hold morning assemblies outdoors and will stream to classrooms on inclement weather days.
We will continue to provide construction updates; we are so excited for the big reveal!
