A big thank you to our Honor Society students who setup our finals review study day. We had a total of 33 students who came to the High School today from 12-4. Out of those 33, we had 12 students who spent 2 hours or more preparing and we had 15 students who spent all 4 hours at the school.
We also had 3 teachers who spent the day helping students. Thank you teachers for your commitment.
Hope everyone has a phenomenal Sunday night. Reminder that we only have 7 school days left until a much needed Christmas Break. We will continues to work together and keep everyone here and safe.
Thank you
Elementary Students will need snow gear for recess beginning Monday. Also, we will NOT have Early Bird services on Wednesday due to Santa’s Workshop set up in the gym.
Finals tutoring is on Sunday from 12-4! We will be selling some snacks. We will have Honor Society members and some teachers there to help students with studying.
Please come for an hour or all four. Honor Society is excited to help all that show up. Students will be asked to leave if they become a distraction. If you come, please enter at the new entrance. We will be using our new commons areas.
Hope to see you tomorrow!!

Quarantine Guidelines Update-
Quarantine can end after Day 10 without testing and if no symptoms have been reported during daily monitoring.
-With this strategy, residual post-quarantine transmission risk is estimated to be about 1% with an upper limit of about 10%.
-When diagnostic testing resources are sufficient and available, then quarantine can end after Day 7 if a diagnostic specimen tests negative and if no symptoms were reported during daily monitoring. The specimen may be collected and tested within 48 hours before the time of planned quarantine discontinuation (e.g., in anticipation of testing delays), but quarantine cannot be discontinued earlier than after Day 7.
-With this strategy, the residual post-quarantine transmission risk is estimated to be about 5% with an upper limit of about 12%.
In both cases, additional criteria (e.g., continued symptom monitoring and masking through Day 14) must be met and are outlined in the full text with the Department of Health.
