Welcome to Phase Two of our reopening plan. This email contains the updates you need to help us begin the new schedule this week. Today, we literally and figuratively rolled up our sleeves for a flu shot and also to complete the complex work to finalize our plans for this next step in our reopening plan. My goodness, there are a lot of moving parts here. Please read carefully.
-
Classroom Assignments. Please click on the link below for your child's grade level. This will take you to a Google Spreadsheet that will list classroom assignments for each student in the grade. This is the classroom where your child should report each morning for attendance.
-
Drop-Off. We are going to keep drop-off simple to start and use the front entrance. Please do not drop off students prior to 7:40am. If a student is eating breakfast here at the school, they should head to the Community Room and eat there. If a student is not eating breakfast at school, they should head directly to their classroom assignment, as listed on the spreadsheet linked below. All students should be in their assigned classroom by no later than 8am.
-
Pick-Up/Dismissal. Most students will be picked up at 2:30pm each day. Some students will have meetings or services with teachers from 2:35-3:20 and those students should be picked up at 3:20pm. Students who are to stay past 2:30 should have been notified by teachers.
-
School Supplies. Please bring a book to read each day to school along with the minimal supplies you will need. Try to limit how many materials are brought back and forth to school.
-
Technology. Please be sure you have read the email regarding technology sent last week. It includes how to login to Schoology and information about devices.
-
Health & Safety. Please be sure you have read the email from Nurse Donadio sent last week. If your child is not feeling well or has been exposed to someone who is ill, err on the side of caution and learn remotely that day.
-
Food Services. Please be sure to read the update sent last week and order meals in advance for your student.
-
Reopening Website. We will continue to update the reopening website for a while longer and then move to our new website later this month.
-
Facilities Task Force. This task force will hold its first meeting on Tuesday evening at 7pm via Zoom. We will be framing our work at this first meeting, which includes planning for future use of the warehouse space.
-
Art. If your child is learning fully remotely in Phase Two, they could elect to come into school for art class only once per week. Contact us kkoch@marbleheadcharter.com for details if interested.
-
Changing Learning Mode. If your child starts out in-person in this Hybrid model and then you elect to go fully remote, please communicate that decision as soon as possible. If your child starts Phase Two fully remote and you elect to send your child for in-person learning, please give as as much advanced notice as possible and await for confirmation before sending your child into school.
-
Requests for changes. We recognize that there may be a set of siblings who are scheduled on different days or a friend who is not assigned to same table or classroom. While we will consider your requests, most requests will not be made during the first two weeks of this phase.
-
Stay engaged with us. Please read the weekly emails, check the new website when it is unveiled, follow us on social media and share our posts, and ask questions if you need clarity.
-
MASKS. Students and adults must be masked wile inside the school. Gaiters, bandanas, and vented masks are not permitted during Phase Two.
We are all in this together. Our entire team has worked incredibly hard to make this next phase possible. We appreciate your continued support and patience as we try to make this all work for everyone.
