Dear Parents,
Happy Friday! Thank you all for your help with the pick-up and drop-off process. It seems to be running more smoothly each day. With all the cars coming through at the same time, we appreciate everyone using the crosswalks when crossing through the parking lot.
There are a few other requests and reminders for the week:
School pick up and drop off times
We’d also like to remind you that school starts at 8:00 and students can be dropped as early as 7:45. School ends at 2:30. If your student does not ride the bus, walk or bike, please plan on picking them up promptly upon dismissal.
Recent emails about covid
I wanted to take a moment to let you know that we are working hard to make sure that everyone is following covid protocol throughout the school each and every day. I know that getting letters about covid exposure is extremely stressful and want to assure you that we recognize the importance of mask use, distancing, handwashing and cleaning. We appreciate your help with sending students to school ready to navigate the school day with masks on, distancing and handwashing.
Pictures
We are currently scheduled for school pictures on Friday, October 8th. Be on the lookout: we are sending order forms in the Friday folders!
How to know if you should keep your child at home
Attached is a description of symptoms that we are asking all families to screen their children for before sending their student to school. (541) 757-5941.
Please let us know if you have any questions. Have a nice weekend.
Sincerely,
Nancy Davila-Williams,
Garfield Principal
