Due to the number of active COVID-19 cases at our elementary schools, masks will continue to be required for students and staff in kindergarten through fifth grade for an additional 5 calendar days (January 25-29).  After those 5 days, cases at each school will be reevaluated again, with the potential for an additional 5 days of masking if the 14-day active COVID case count remains at, or above, the masking threshold.

When deciding whether to switch to remote learning, delay classes, or dismiss school early, there are multiple factors to be considered, but always at the forefront of our decision-making process is the safety of our children and District staff members.  Click More + for information about expectations during inclement weather.
