We will be doing our final MAP Assessment this week, so we are encouraging all of our students to get a good nights sleep, have breakfast and to do their best on the assessment. Thank you for your assistance!

With COVID cases still increasing in the village, we feel that it is prudent to continue with distance learning through Thursday, February 27th, Meals will continue to available for pickup from 11:30-1:00pm.

Just a reminder to everyone that we will be on distance learning at least through Tuesday. We will be watching to see if we are reversing the Covid trend in the village. We will be having meals ready to be picked up between 11:30 and 1:00pm. We do hope that we can resume our regular school hours on Wednesday! Once again, if you or a family member is sick, coughing or just not feeling well, please stay home. Also mask up in public places and continue to sanitize commonly touched surfaces around the house.

As there are 19 active cases of the coronavirus in the village, eleven of which were recorded yesterday, including a staff member, we are going to continue to do distance learning through Tuesday. By then, most all of those currently on quarantine should be able to resume their normal activities, as long as they are masked up. We will decide on Tuesday afternoon whether we will resume face to face learning for the rest of the week. The City is recommending that everyone limit contact with others and to follow the normal coronavirus safety procedures. We will get through this pandemic together!

With two additional staff members contacting the Coronavirus, the school will not reopen until at least Monday. When we return to regular classes will depend on what the local COVID level is looking like this weekend. We will be watching the trend carefully. Meals will continue to be picked up between 11:30 and 1:00pm on weekdays. We were hoping to have parent/teacher conferences this week, but instead, we will be sending out Semester grades either with meals or by mail. Be watching for an update this weekend as to the status of school on Monday.

Based upon the current COVID-19 information that we have, tomorrow will be a regular school day. We would, however, ask as was stated on Friday, that if your child is coughing, sneezing or feeling sick, please keep them home. We still have more than one virus going around the village. Also, if you are uncomfortable sending your child/children to school with the current number of illnesses in the village, let us know and we will provide homework for them. Hopefully we are nearing the end of these viruses and we can finally return to some normalcy! Thank you for your patience.

As we have at least three different sicknesses going around the village, I wanted to ask that if your children are not feeling well, or have symptoms of a virus, that you please keep them home. Also, if you are not comfortable sending your children to school with the current situation being as it is, they will be considered an excused absence. It is also possible that we will have additional cases of coronavirus either in the school, the village or both that will require that we go back to a red stage and distance learning. We hope this doesn’t happen, but just giving everyone a heads up of the possibility.

All of our staff tested today, and we had no additional cases other than two that were reported earlier. Many of us had symptoms, but they turned out to be a nasty cold or the flu and not COVID! We also now have coverage available for all of our teachers. Therefore, school will resume on its normal schedule tomorrow morning. Normal COVID safety requirements will be in place, including the taking of temperatures, wearing of masks, social distancing, increased sanitation, no night gym. Thank you for your patience as well continue to navigate through these trying times.

Because of a combination of flu, colds and a lack of staff to cover classes, we are going to be on distance learning for today and possibly longer. We will keep you in the loop as we see what the situation looks like tomorrow. Meals will be provided as we have in the past distance learning situations. Please remember to social distance, to mask up in public buildings, wash hands frequently and to sanitize surfaces regularly. Be safe. Jim

Although at this time we have only one COVID-19 case in the village, because of the rate at which the Omnivirus spreads, and what appears to be a non travel related illness, we will be requiring masks to be worn by all staff and students for the next two weeks. Students, staff and visitors will also have their temperatures taken upon entering the building. I am not a fan of the required masking with a low number of cases locally, but I am less of a fan to having to close our school because of an outbreak of the virus in the school and the community that could possibly have been prevented. Thank you for your patience as we one again move to limit the spread of the virus in our school and our community.

The end of the first semester is this Friday (January 15th). Therefore, Thursday will be a staff work day and Friday will be a school inservice day to prepare for the second semester. Students will not have school Thursday or Friday. Stating on Monday, January 17, students will be dismissed at 3:30. We will finally be on our regular school schedule. We will still have early dismissal on Fridays.
