\n\n\n\nThis and That<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nHere is the email from Dr. Steve to teachers regarding the February 4, Certified Work Day Expectations: <\/strong>In light of the continuing surge of COVID-19 cases in our community, we are looking for ways to limit spread that do not have a negative impact on instructional time for students. Based on this, we are offering some flexibility on Feb. 4, a non-student contact day, for you to complete grading. You (teachers) may complete your full workday at school or from home. <\/p>\n\n\n\nSchools and offices will remain open and staffed for calls or walk-ins on Feb. 4 and there will be no change for extracurricular and club activities. The only change to this contracted work day is the flexibility for teacher grading to take place from school or home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thank you all for your continued professionalism and care for our students during this challenging time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the form:<\/p>\n\n\n\nhttps:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSccLCgyWa4kvGvT6sJGzdMbJnfUTCkD-gMnOJBmRFxhzXjjXg\/viewform<\/a> Please have your school nurse place the weekly PPE order to avoid any confusion. <\/p>\n\n\n\nYou are encouraged to make 3-ply and KN95 masks available to students and staff via self serve. The KN95s with black printing on the outside of the mask are smaller than the newer all white masks. Those with black imprints may be better suited for youth faces. When you order additional KN95s you will receive the new, larger version. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And remember, in an effort to extend the life of PPE during the pandemic, staff are reminded that KN95 masks can be reused when appropriate handling <\/a>and storage is followed by following some simple storage and handling rules. Click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
