Boles Weekly Vol. 9 | OCT 5 - 9

Principal's Corner

Parents and Guardians,

As students return to campus, I want to emphasize the importance of them wearing masks appropriately and maintaining social distancing. We are doing all that we can to protect the safety of staff and students. We have noticed some students who may wear their mask under their nose, remove the mask to change it out in the middle of class, or talking together in small groups during passing periods. We are redirecting these students and teaching them the whys of mask wearing: why it's a government mandate, why it's part of the student code of conduct, and why it's an important health precaution. Please help us in having a discussion with your student about how they are wearing a mask at school. Not only are they protecting themselves, but they are protecting those on campus who may have a pre-existing condition or loved ones at home who are high risk. Thank you for your support as we continue to navigate through this pandemic together.

If you were unable to pick up a house lanyard and badge, they will be given to students who return to in-person learning on 9/28 or 10/13. If your student remains virtual, they will receive theirs when they return to school.

Thank you to all our families for filling out the survey letting us know your plans for in person or remote learning. If you have reason to change your mind, the form for you to let us know your new plans can be found on our school website, or by clicking the button below.

Please note that administrative approval to changes in a student's instructional setting can take up to five days after your completion of this form.
