| CORONAVIRUS UPDATE
We appreciate your support as we have continued to take precautions against the coronavirus and have worked hard to maintain a safe environment for our students and faculty. As you know, the governor has required all schools to close beginning March 16 until April 13.
What this means for students:
- Support will be provided.
- Continued practice will be available to students online or through paper packets. Monday, you will receive more information about accessing the assignments.
- The purpose of the assignments provided during the closure is to avoid a loss of instruction, continue skill practice, and allow students to continue to prepare for standardized assessments such as LEAP, AP exams, and certification tests. This work will not be graded.
- Lunch distribution is being discussed and details will be provided Monday.
- All school events from March 13 to April 13 will be canceled. This includes ACT prep, Saturday detention, field trips, competitions, choir concerts, family nights, attendance recovery, etc.
- We will continue to follow LHSAA's guidance regarding athletic events.
- If students were absent today, they can pick up their belongings from the schools Monday between 9:00-3:00.
- Parents can also pick up medication Monday between 9:00-3:00.
