Happy New Year Tiger family!
Yesterday the district sent out information via text , website, and social media about school next week. If you did not receive a text, call the office next week to make sure your cell number is set up correctly in the system.
We will resume face to face instruction on Monday and will be in session five days a week. All K-4 students will have face to face instruction unless quarantined by our school nurse or medical professional. If you want your child to keep your child at home to attend school offsite, your child will need to enroll in our Rsvl Cyclone Virtual Academy. You may enroll in RCVA on Monday by calling our office to let us know your child will be changing & the RCVA office for registration.
We will continue with our safety protocols that helped us have a very successful first semester of school. To continue with our success rate, we need you to follow these protocols:1. If anyone in your household is being tested for COVID, your child cannot come to school and should stay in quarantine until the results of the test are received. 2. If your child is considered a close contact to someone who has tested positive, they cannot come to school until their quarantine period is over. 3. If your child has fever or any other symptoms of illness, they must stay home until they are fever free without any medication for 48 hours. 4. Our 4th graders are required to wear a face covering. We strongly encourage it for all other students.
If you have any questions, feel free to send Mrs. Malin an email or call us on Monday.
