Easter Monday: Dress Up Day!

Since many of our students may be missing out on wearing their "Easter best" on Easter Sunday, we invite students to dress UP this Easter Monday at school! This is an opportunity for students to wear their Easter best in lieu of their school uniforms.

*This is not mandatory - students may still wear their school uniforms.

Breakfast & Lunch Menus

Menus are posted in your Family Portal and online. Be sure to get your students' orders in!

Vermont Department of Health and CDC Guidance on Close Contact with COVID-19 After Vaccination


The Vermont Department of Health and the CDC have issued guidance that fully vaccinated individuals in non-healthcare settings do not need to quarantine after exposure to someone with COVID-19 if they are not experiencing symptoms. This guidance also applies to school staff: a fully vaccinated school staff member who has had close contact with someone who has COVID-19 does not need to quarantine and can continue to come to work. All staff should continue to mask and follow physical distancing requirements regardless of vaccination status.

Yearbook production is wrapping up.
