REOPENING ISSUE

Dear Mustang Families,


We are overjoyed about the FIRST DAY of hybrid learning tomorrow, Tuesday, February 23. We are looking forward to welcoming our Mustangs into their brand new home! Tomorrow is Tuesday so students in Groups B and D will be in-person. Students in Groups A and C will be virtual. (A reminder that students in Group D are invited for in-person classes all four days.)


Please take a few minutes to review the important information summarized below.


See you tomorrow!

Things To Know

  • Please do not send your child to school if she/he/they are sick.
  • Students must self-screen BEFORE getting on the bus or coming to school using the daily student self-monitoring health screening sheet.
  • Students will need to wear a face-covering properly at all times.
  • Students will need to social distance at all times.
  • Students must wash their hands frequently.
  • Students' temperatures will be taken before getting on the bus and the building. Bus riders will get their temperatures taken only once.
  • Please check the NEW walk and bus zone map. The walk zone was expanded due to a limited number of students that will fit in each bus in order to accommodate social distancing. So if your child was a bus rider before, she/he/they may not be a bus rider now. Some bus stops were eliminated.
  • Students' schedules are available in PowerSchool.
  • Bike racks are available for students in front of Henderson and in the old high school.

Student drop-off is shown as the Red Mustang Loop and students will be dropped off right by the old high school. From there, students will walk along the Pink Route to the high school entrance. Student drivers may park in the old Senior lot, part of the old Junior lot, and the old Visitor lot. Upon arrival at the entrance, students' temperatures will be taken.
