IMPORTANT REMINDERS – PLEASE READ
|
|
-
Masks must be worn at all times in the building.
-
Please monitor everyone in your household for symptoms of COVID-19 and self-quarantine, as needed. Anyone who exhibits COVID-19 like symptoms or tests positive for COVID-19 is asked to contact Patty McCarthy, School Nurse, at (224) 475-1552 or pmccarthy@stpatrick.org.
-
Students who exhibit COVID-19 like symptoms, or have been exposed to someone who tests positive for COVID-19 or is experiencing COVID-19 like symptoms, should remain home. If your son is not attending school on his scheduled In-Person Learning day (even if he is Remote Learning), parents are asked to notify Mary Gibson, Attendance Officer, at ext. 240.
-
Avoid large gatherings and parties. The larger the group and the newer the people students introduce into their social circle, the greater the risk that each of them accepts and potentially jeopardizes others as well as our ability to have In-Person Learning.
-
Limit travel. If you travel to one of the areas on the City of Chicago's Emergency Travel Order (Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee and Texas), students will be required to self-quarantine for 14 days prior to attending to In-Person Learning. Parents should contact Sergio Muro, Director of Student Services, at smuro@stpatrick.org if your son needs to self-quarantine and discuss a plan for Remote Learning during this time.
-
Provide honest and accurate information to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 in our school community. If you are contacted by a member of the Saint Patrick administration or Nurse Patty McCarthy for contact tracing purposes, we ask that you please cooperate to help contain any positive or probable COVID-19 cases and the need for us, as a school, to return to full Remote Learning.
-
Remember Dress Code for In-Person Learning days consists of khaki colored and style shorts or khaki style pants with Saint Patrick polo purchased from SchoolBelles and belt. Gym shoes are permitted. School ID's must be worn with school-issued lanyards at all times on In-Person Learning days.
-
Hair and Appearance: Hair should be neatly cut, no longer than collar length with limited length on top. Dyed hair, streaks, braids, cornrows, designs, or colored highlights are not acceptable. Students are to be clean shaven at all times (no mustaches, beards) unless accompanied by a note from a dermatologist. Students in violation may be suspended from school.
|
|
- Students are expected to be engaged and avoid distracting behavior.
- All language and communication must remain appropriate for school.
- Students are expected to be appropriately groomed, and in their school uniform polo shirt while on camera.
- Students should be seated at a desk or table with proper lighting so their faces can be seen.
-
When logging in, students must use their school email and first and last name.
- Students may not take screenshots or otherwise record any part of a Remote Learning class without the prior permission of the teacher.
- All work submitted during Remote Learning must be the student’s own.
- Students are expected to act in accordance with the Student Handbook for all Remote Learning.
