Message from the Principal
Hello Mullan Road Families,

We rely heavily on your partnership and vigilance in communication and monitoring your child for COVID-like symptoms to ensure student health and safety. We want you to be aware that if your child shows possible COVID symptoms at school or if you call in your child as sick, we will be continuing to ask questions surrounding their symptoms. We are following this same protocol with our staff members. As a result, staff will be home for greater lengths of time. 
Additionally, your child will have more substitute teachers/para-educators than in previous years. We will also face more unfilled positions that we will creatively cover as a building. If your child’s teacher/para-educator has any slight sickness, including simple cold symptoms, they will not be able to come to work. 
Thank you for helping us to keep everyone safer by keeping your child at home if your child is sick. If your child is sick or if someone in your home is sick, please call our school. We realize that keeping your child home is an inconvenience and creates hardships; we also realize it is difficult for our staff to be away from the job they love and the children and families they are passionate about serving. We are focusing first on keeping everyone healthy and safe. We then turn our attention to meeting each child’s educational needs and to maintaining in-person learning. Thank you for your partnership in safety and education.

Sincerely,

Matt Beal
Principal

Counselors Corner
We have been busy teaching social skills in your child’s classroom this fall!
Counseling lessons have focused on the Zones of Regulation and solving small
problems with Kelso’s Choices. If you haven’t heard about our lessons at home
yet, please ask your child what they have learned. We enjoy being in the
classrooms. This is an opportunity to get to know the students and build
relationships with them. We are another support at Mullan Road for them and we
want them to know we are here to help them to have a great school year. We can
also check in with any student who may need a bit of an extra touch at school.
While school counselors do not do therapy at school, we can provide additional
support for students. If your child would benefit from a little bit of counselor
support, please contact us. We are happy to talk with you and are so lucky to
have two counselors at school this year!
