Parent Email - April 29th

May 1^st Drop-Off / Pick-Up Day
 
This Friday, May 1^st, will be our next Drop-Off/Pick-Up Day. This will be the last pick-up day with May 14^th being a final drop-off day. We will follow the same system we have been using (attached). If it is raining during this time frame, the PK3 – 3^rd grade boxes will be moved to the covered area in front of the Fellowship Hall (normal personal pick-up line area) and 4^th – 8^th grade would be in the covered area between the gym and the back entrance. There will be two boxes and a basket per grade level: 

• One box to drop materials off
  • Please drop all items you are submitting into the box marked for return work - there is no need to separate by teacher. Please include your Distance Learning Plan (PK3 – 3^rd grades) as we will use this for attendance. Teachers will also let you know if they are ready to collect textbooks. This information will come directly from teachers. 
• One box to pick materials up
  • Please take the top packet of new material from the box. 

Under the front porch, you will see more boxes:

• Library books box 
  • Please place any library books you would like to return in this box.
• Designated Angels Return Area
  • Please follow the instructions from Mrs. Gonzalez regarding returning these items.
• Teacher Appreciation Cards
  • Please drop off any cards your child(ren) may have made for Teacher Appreciation Week next week. Thank you!
• Nurse Pavlock
  • Mrs. Pavlock will be available to return to our families any medication that may have been left in the clinic. 

After the 8^th grade boxes in the back, you will see the following boxes:

• Library books box 
  • Please place any library books you would like to return in this box.
• Athletics Uniform return box
  • Please place any middle school athletics uniforms in this box marked with student’s name.
• Teacher Appreciation Cards
  • Please drop off any cards your child(ren) may have made for Teacher Appreciation Week next week. Thank you!

Flowers for Mary
 In honor of our month dedicated to Mary, you are invited to drop off a flower to Mary in the piazza. We continue to ask for Mary’s protection of us as we honor her this way.
 
 We are asking families to come at these times to spread out presence on campus. Please make every effort to come at your designated time to help with our mission to promote social distancing.

• Last Names A – I : 2 pm – 3 pm
• Last Names J – R : 3 pm – 4 pm
• Last Names S – Z : 4 pm – 5 pm

Staff will not be outside at this time as we do our best to comply with all CDC recommendations. Parents or students MAY NOT come in the building. We also ask that you comply with the social distancing recommendations of Montgomery County when getting these materials. The National Institute of Health reports that COVID-19 can live up to 24 hours on cardboard. Our teachers will be waiting to review materials until Monday. Please take precautions with the items you pick up as well.

Just a reminder that this is not mandatory. You may also opt to submit all materials electronically to your teacher and print packets. Either option is fine. We are trying to meet the needs of all families by giving both options.
