A Note from Mrs. Hoke
Fourth & Fifth Grade In-Person Students
On Monday we will welcome students in grades 4 and 5 to return to daily in-person instruction on Monday, March 15. This means students in grades 4 and 5 currently attending classes in three-week rotations will attend school every day. This decision does not apply to students who are registered in the WCPSS Virtual Academy.
Carpool:
To anticipate a larger amount of students being dismissed during carpool we will make a few changes to afternoon dismissal. We do anticipate delays for the first several days as we get acclimated to our new procedures. Thank you in advance for your patience, flexibility, and understanding.
Transportation:
All students will go home on their regular mode of transportation unless we receive an email or phone call from a parent/guardian/caregiver.
School Visitors:
Only essential visitors will be allowed on school campuses in an effort to protect the health and safety of our community by minimizing the number of people on sites. Eating lunch with your child and visiting the classroom is not permitted at this time.
