My apologies if I have missed anyone-let me know so we can update you all at our faculty meeting on Monday.
We have a big week ahead of us as we bring back more students to campus for face to face learning. We have about 17 new students who will be attending daily beginning Monday. We will keep everyone informed about how this next phased transition is going and would like to thank our inclusion teams for their planning and preparing last week to get ready for our students.
Students will be eating breakfast and lunch on the tables outside of B building and cafeteria (not including FSC or preK students). Be aware that they will be eating in these locations as you pass by in the morning (From 7:30 AM) or at lunch time. The tables will be disinfected multiple times during the day and if students are not actively eating, it is expected they wear their masks while on campus.
A special note-Our inclusion students who are on campus will be dismissed on Mondays at 11:30 am after their lunch from 11:00-11:30. This is to accommodate time for teachers to attend PLCs and allow these students to participate in on-line resource classes like their peers.
From Mike:
For teachers with students in the room or hubs, we will need your help in preparing the room for disinfecting. Please clear all used desks/table tops and all chairs must be pulled out so the custodian knows to what furniture to disinfect. Face shields may be left on the desk to be disinfected.

This video of Jakson, our SC 2nd VP, was shared to announce our upcoming activities.
Teachers - Please play this video if you have not done so already. Also, if your students are interested, please give them the link to the Captain Compassion Comic Series. It's a good comic.
We hope your week is filled with joys and special moments! Have a great one!
This Week
Updates for Students- recorded message (Shared with teachers and students via Seesaw)
Aloha Students!
On Wednesday, October 21, we encourage everyone to wear Orange, in support of Unity Day and Bullying Prevention. Also, on that day, you will take and sign a pledge to prevent bullying. This is an important issue for all of us regardless if we are on campus or distance learning.
Parent-Teacher conferences will start this week. Hopefully your parents have signed up for a conference time with your teacher to hear all about your progress and share your Quarter 1 report cards. Keep working hard and push yourself to get better at everything you do every day!
Enjoy your week-Stay safe and stay healthy.
