Dear
Parents and Guardians of Saint Mary’s Academy,

 

This
afternoon we were informed of new Covid-19 cases at the school.

 

DISTANCE
LEARNING

 

Tomorrow,
December 17, all students from kindergarten to grade 12 will move to distance
learning until the holiday break begins.

 

For K-6
students, the holiday break begins tomorrow at the end of the day. Teachers
will do a final check-in with students during the day. Please watch for a
message from them.

 

Grades 7 and 8
students will remain in distance learning until Tuesday, December 21, end of
the day. During this time students should follow their regular class schedules
via Teams or any other manner communicated by their teachers.

 

Grades 9-12
students will remain in distance learning until Thursday, December 23, midday,
and should follow their regular class schedules via Teams.

 

RAPID
TESTING

 

All kindergarten to grade 8 students and all unvaccinated
grades 9-12 students are required to begin rapid testing immediately and
monitor for symptoms.

 

Kindergarten
to grade 8 students who already have rapid test kits at home should continue
with rapid testing until all the tests are completed.

 

Unvaccinated
grades 9-12 students should start rapid testing tomorrow.

 

Families
who do not already have test kits can pick them up tomorrow from the school.

 

A student
and/or parent may retrieve personal items, school work packages or test kits at
the school as long as they have a negative rapid test result for that
day. 

 

Thank
you for your continued support as we respond to the pandemic.

 

Sincerely,

 

Jay Colpitts,
Director of Schools for Covid-19 Response
