Dear Larsen Families,

Thank you for taking a few minutes to read this month’s update and for ALL you do to support your children and our school! Our staff values our partnership!

I am very excited that this week starts the 1st week of Black History Month. A wise man, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., once said, “We are not makers of history. We are made by history.” During this month, we plan to celebrate those individuals that paved the foundation for us to continue to build on. I want to encourage our young Roadrunner scholars that their voices and words have power and when put to positive use can bring significant change.

Covid safety. With the rise of the Omicron variant, January has been a hard month for Larsen and for schools across the country. Earlier this month, Omicron hit HESD hard as well. We have kept you updated when a person has tested positive in your student's classroom and will continue to do so.

I am happy to report that things have greatly improved. Student attendance is rebounding and our staff has been doing an incredible job teaching all students in-person as well as those out on quarantine by way of short-term Independent Study.

While there has been a great improvement, we will continue to take every precaution. Testing remains available to all students and staff from 10:00-3:45 each Tuesday and Thursday at Haycox School and on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at Blackstock School. Use the Larsen registration link below. No appointments will be necessary after you complete the initial registration process.

Students who turn 5 between September 2nd and February 2nd may enroll in Transitional Kindergarten.

Students who turn 5 by September 1st may enroll in Kindergarten.

TK is offered at Bard, Haycox, Hueneme, Larsen, and Williams Schools.

Enroll for both TK and Kindergarten at your HOME School, even if TK is not offered at your home school. If TK is not offered at your home school, staff at your home school will assist in enrolling your child in one of the TK classes at another school site. Based on enrollment, TK classes may be added to additional school sites. To get a glimpse into our TK and kindergarten classrooms, please watch this short video:

Please make sure that your student arrives on campus no later than 8:00 am so they can be in their lines by the first bell at 8:05 am. Students that arrive to school with time to spare have the luxury of settling in, preparing their class materials, and focusing their minds on the lessons to come, ultimately making them the most prepared to learn.

The forecast for the next month is predicted to bring cold temperatures(especially in the mornings). Cold weather means students should be dressed appropriately to prevent illness and to ensure comfort. Jackets or warm sweaters should be worn outdoors. Our students will continue to eat breakfast and lunch outside as much as possible to stave away the COVID-19 virus.

Your student SHOULD NOT attend school if they have ANY of the common COVID-19 symptoms.

Students are to stay HOME if:

-If your student does not feel well

-If your student has any COVID-like symptoms

*If your student is unvaccinated and was a close contact to someone who was COVID positive, they must quarantine at home even if they do not have any symptoms.

1. Quarantine can end after Day 5 if asymptomatic and a test collected on Day 5 or later is negative OR

2. Quarantine can end after Day 10 if asymptomatic.

Thank you for keeping our school community safe!
