High School Students,
I'm writing to give you a little information about where the school is with respect to the coronavirus/COVID-19. For openers, please review the communications related to coronavirus on the school's website. That page also includes links to websites for government agencies that are keeping the public up to date regarding health information.
At this time, the school has no plans for closure, and we in the High School are finalizing our plans for A-Term to begin on Monday, March 23. However, I suggest that all High School students, staff, and faculty be "backpack ready" at the close of each day school day. This means that when you leave school, you bring home your materials and supplies that you would need if you were notified that school was going to be closed for the next day. This will allow you to be best prepared for that eventuality and support you in completing your schoolwork. This is particularly important to do on Thursday, March 12, as we go into the spring break week. As you leave school on Thursday, make sure you have your books, binders, and other supplies, just in case.
Ms. Joyce has been sending letters to parents over the past couple of weeks. You can find those on the school's website.
If you have questions, ask your advisor or me. We know there is a lot of information flowing around, a lot of unknowns, and a lot of questions. We'll tell you what we know and will work to avoid spreading mis-information.
Stay tuned for more to come. Have a great spring break next week!
James Moudry
