MASK REMINDERS: Just a reminder that fabric masks should be laundered every day. Disposable masks should be worn for one day and then discarded. Please send an extra, clean, "back-up" mask to school with your student(s) if they wear them all day to serve as a replacement. We do keep extra disposable and fabric masks for emergencies at school, but are asking for your support to send at least one extra mask each day. Masks can get misplaced or soiled at school when dropped, if wet, or after a nosebleed.
