REMINDER:
Students – a couple of important reminders. The breakfast program is open from 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM to all students who wish to eat in the morning. At 9:30 it returns to a Senior-only study area. After students have eaten they should return to one of the other designated study areas.
Also – as I walk the halls before school, I often tell students to maintain a safe distance while standing and sitting in the hallways. This is one of the primary guidelines in keeping everyone safe. As difficult as it is sometimes, the safe-social-distancing guidelines are still in place. This applies to the hallways in the mornings, the cafeteria lines, as well as entering and leaving classrooms. Always maintain a safe, social distance!
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 9
REMINDER:
Students – We are blessed with a beautiful day today, and many of us will be outside. This is a reminder that the patios are study areas. Students must be seated, and a minimum of six feet apart before masks are removed. With the exception of the Sr patio, cell phones may not be out. Our first priority is keeping our students and staff safe, and we will do that by following the guidelines in place regarding masks and keeping a safe distance.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 12
PATIOS:
Attention Freshmen and Sophomores – there is no eating on the patio. I addressed this a couple of times on Wednesday, so this is an additional reminder that food is not allowed on the patio areas.
The patios are outside study areas. When students enter the patio area, they must find a seat. There can be 4 to a table and 2 to a bench. When those areas are full students must move to a different, supervised study area. CLL in the auditorium, and the Library are both available.
SAFETY REMINDER:
And this is an important reminder to our students and staff that now, perhaps more than ever, we must ALL follow the guidelines to keep our campus safe and allow it to remain open. Masks must cover the nose and mouth and be on while in the building. Be aware of social distancing, and when outside we must all be a minimum of 6 feet from our classmates or teachers before masks can come down. We all have a role to play!
