Elementary School Newsletter - January 18th, 2022
We know that the first two weeks back from winter break have been a whirlwind! Thank you for working with us and being understanding as we navigate through this current surge. Many parents have inquired if we will be updating our policy, regarding quarantine days, to align more closely to the CDC and St. Louis Health Department guidelines. This is something that we will be doing, but only after we get through the surge. As you can see from our data we have seen a major spike in cases. Our hope is to revisit our policy at the beginning of February. As always we will continue to keep you updated if any changes are made.
Water Bottles/Cups: Friendly reminder to have your child bring a water bottle/cup to school! It is also helpful to label your child's bottle with their name on it so that it can be easily found. Drinking fountains are currently shut off per safety guidelines. Touchless water bottle fillers remain available for use in all buildings. Please reach out if you need assistance acquiring a water bottle for your child.
Masks: Please continue to send your child with a mask. We have several students who come in without them. They are provided with a mask in the case of a broken one or a one time forgotten mistake, but please do your part to ensure that resources aren't wasted.
Calendar dates:
Tuesday January 25th: Tornado Drill at 9:15am
Updated COVID numbers are attached.
Thanks everyone! Have a great week!
