Stonybrook Red Storm Forecast

January 4, 2021

From Principal Smith

Dear Stonybrook parents and caregivers,

First, I would like to say happy new year on behalf of the Stonybrook teachers, admin, and staff.

District Second Semester Return Plan

Due to our Marion County Health Department, based on current COVID-19 data, we will begin the second semester fully virtual tomorrow, January the 4th. 5th grade students will have virtual learning five days a week and 6th-8th grade students will have virtual learning on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and application days on Tuesday and Thursdays. This will be the schedule while we are 100% virtual. Upon our return to face to face AND virtual learning in February, we will return to the Black and Gold schedule.

Our 5th grade students will remain virtual until January 15th and will return to school, face to face, on January 19th. 5th grade students who were virtual before winter break, will remain virtual on January 19th.

6th-8th grade students who were HYBRID (came to school, face to face, on their Black or Gold schedule), will remain virtual until February 12th and will return to school, on their HYBRID Black or Gold schedule on Wednesday, February 17th.

Third Quarter Material Pick-Up

Students and families will need to pick up learning materials that will be used during the third instructional quarter. Materials can be picked up in the front office between 8:30 AM and 4:00 PM daily. Please only send one family member into the office to retrieve materials. On Tuesday, January 5th, from 4PM to 7PM the office will also be open for material pick-up.

MSD Warren Continues Food Distribution. Starting the week of January 4, food distributions will occur Tuesdays and Fridays from 4:00 - 6:00 PM at Moorhead Community Resource Center, Warren Central High School, Creston, Raymond Park, and Stonybrook Intermediate Middle Schools.

Thank you for your flexibility during these trying times. We will continue to do our very best to keep all students engaged and learning as will finish up this school year in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mr. Smith

School District Publications/News Media Use

The occasion may arise when the school district wants to recognize your child or Stonybrook. This may include your child's photo, your child's name or your child's work in district publications, newsletters, on school district websites, and in electronic/social media or in staff training videos. We may also want to tell the media (including newspapers, television, and radio) about your child's achievements. We never knowingly release information about a student to anyone who wants to use it for commercial/political purposes. However, we will honor your request to not include your child in these types of recognitions if you notify our office in writing that you do not want this type of information released
