Eagles in Action
3rd Grade Eagles in Action 2020
3rd Grade is Sent to Serve (Matthew 20:28) the LaGrange Area Food Pantry through chapel offerings we collect this month. During this school year, 3rd grade will purchase items each month that Snap or Link cards don’t cover like toothpaste, shampoo, soap, deodorant, or toilet paper, to name a few. We will also be collecting food items like cereal, pasta, and canned goods that can be dropped off during Meals to Go on Sunday, September 20th. We will keep you posted on the items we purchase each month in the WINGS. Thank you for helping us serve in our community with your offerings!
Announcements
Arrival and Dismissal Procedures
The arrival and dismissal procedures for the beginning of this school year are extremely important and must be followed. The document attached below explains all arrival and dismissal procedures.

PLEASE NOTE: Families with siblings entering at different doors: The older sibling(s) may line up at their appropriate door while the adult waits in line with the younger sibling(s). The adult must check in at the older sibling's door to be sure they have been admitted to school before leaving.

A reminder that these policies have been put in place in order to meet health department guidelines, and allow us to be in school as safely as possible. Cooperation from everyone involved is essential.
IDPH Guidelines for Schools
It is extremely important if your student is exhibiting any symptoms that could be COVID-19 related, your student needs to stay at home. They will still be able to participate in afternoon remote learning. If a student gets tested for COVID-19 for any reason, that student must be kept home until test results are received.

Per IDPH guidelines:
  • All students sent home with COVID-like symptoms should be diagnostically tested. Student should remain home from school until they receive the test results.

  • Students who are confirmed or probable cases of COVID-19 must complete 10 calendar days of isolation from the date of first symptom onset AND be be fever-free for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication AND other symptoms have improved before returning to school.

  • Students returning to school after experiencing COVID-like symptoms but being diagnosed with a non-COVID illness must, at a minimum, be fever-free for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication AND have had no diarrhea or vomiting in the previous 24 hours. A doctor's note documenting the alternative diagnosis or a negative COVID-19 test should be submitted to the school.

  • If a student is sent home sick with suspected COVID-19 symptoms (e.g., cough, fever, diarrhea, shortness of breath, etc.), all siblings must be sent home as well. If one household member is being evaluated for COVID-19, the rest of the household must be quarantined until an alternative diagnosis is made or negative result received. If the sick student becomes a confirmed case (i.e., tests positive for COVID-19) or a probable case (i.e., has COVID-like symptoms and is epidemiologically linked to known case), the local health department conducting contact tracing will place household contacts, including siblings, in quarantine for 14 calendar days.
Office By Appointment Only
There will not be anyone allowed to come into the office except by appointment. All forms must be sent in with a student to be given to a teacher, and communication will be via email or phone call. Papers may also be dropped in the mailbox beside the Park Road doors. Please be patient as we all adjust to these new procedures and policies.
