Horace Mann and the Leet Center are planning an in-person return to school Wednesday evening August 12th for our 2020-2021 Back to School Night. Our families are invited to join us in front of Brown Hall to the east of Horace Mann and Leet Center.
- Families should plan to arrive with face coverings and practice physical distancing. We will work as efficiently as we can and your patience will be appreciated to allow us to meet everyone's needs.
- Bring your child's school supplies in a bag with their name clearly written on it. We will have carts outdoors for you to place them in.
- Please be sure your child is current on their immunizations. We will require an updated copy of their immunization records to be on file.
- Visit your child's teacher and plan to take your child's picture with their teacher as this year's Back to School Picture. We have provisions in place to make this a socially distanced opportunity.
- Last year's Art Show will be not be missed! Horace Mann's children's works of art will be out for you to enjoy on a walk through panels.
- We are grateful to Well's Bank for cooking our individually wrapped meals for the evening. Your family may take them to go or bring a large blanket to picnic socially distanced in the yard near Colden Pond.
To facilitate physical distancing, we ask families to use this schedule below to plan their arrivals. We appreciate your cooperation in planning ahead to arrive at the designated times.
- 5:00-5:45pm - Families with last names beginning with A-D
- 5:45-6:25pm - Families with last names beginning with E-R
- 6:25-7:00pm - Families with last names beginning with S-Z
CAN YOU HELP?
- Microwaves (for the school year to facilitate cold lunches in the classroom - would return at the end of the year)
Due to safety measures, we will not be accepting donations of recyclable materials this year.
