We also would like to remind everyone of steps you can take to help be safe:

  2. Always wear a mask that covers both the mouth and nose when you are out of your home.

  4. Don’t touch the eyes, nose or mouth unless your hands are clean.
  5. Complete the Student COVID-19 Screener each day before your child leaves for school, available daily via the email address on file for parents and guardians. More information is available from the Students/Families dropdown menu above.
