I wanted to first say thank you for your patience in this difficult time. I understand how challenging the past few days have been with the uncertainty of school closures. It is not easy for families.
Unfortunately classes will be canceled again tomorrow, January 6th. This includes both in-person and remote classes. At this time we have no update about the plan for moving forward but I would tentatively plan on classes being canceled again on Friday. (You can see the communication from the district at http://www.skinnernorth.org/latest-news/message-from-cps in case you missed it.) We will be working tomorrow to see what options we can potentially offer for families. I will continue to update you as these plans progress.
As we await further direction, I highly encourage all families to sign-up for school-based Covid testing. We have a little over 50% of the student population testing weekly. We need more students to opt in to ensure we have a firm grasp of the prevalence of the virus in our school. This is an easy step in our efforts of collective responsibility.
Sign up for testing at https://home.color.com/covid/sign-up/start?partner=tf-ski-610534-students. Once signed up, you are opted into weekly testing. You do not have to sign up every week.
Have a wonderful day,
Katie
