Carlisle Elementary Newsletter
  November 13, 2020 
 
DCS families will have the opportunity to select their learning model for the second semester. Any family wishing to make a change will need to complete the change of placement survey which will be available from Nov. 13-22. 

Families will receive an email with the survey and it will be posted on the district website. If your family wishes to continue in your current learning model, you do not need to do anything. 

Additional information about the change of placement process is available on the DCS website.

If your child is a walker and you meet them by the bike rack, please wait in the designated area.  There are "Wait Here" signs to designate areas for walkers.  All students (unless exempt), staff, and all parents / guardians must be wearing a mask on school property during arrival, the school day, and dismissal.
