Important Information from Dr. Hembree
We are thrilled to welcome back our Chiefs this week! We have waited for this week for a long time, and we cannot wait to see everyone! As we begin back tomorrow, we wanted to make everyone aware of a few items.
- All students will need to wear a mask upon entering school and on all school buses. All car riders will also need to wear a mask upon getting out of the vehicle and walking into school. Students will be asked to wear a mask throughout the instructional day.
- Each student will have his/her temperature taken upon arrival to school. If students have a fever, they will be taken to our designated isolation room (one per school) and will remain there until a parent/guardian can pick them up.
- We will begin meal deliveries this week. Students will be provided with breakfast and lunch on the “off days” if participating in a hybrid model, and of course will be provided with breakfast and lunch each day if participating in our virtual academy. All students will be provided with breakfast and lunch on Fridays as well. If you do not wish to receive these meal deliveries, please contact our cafeteria manager, Mrs. Deborah Walls. However, if you wish to receive the meal deliveries and do not receive them, please contact Mrs. Walls as well.
- Lastly, you will be receiving some guidance from our district nurse, Mrs. Marjorie Batchelor, which outlines DHEC policies and procedures that we will follow. Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or need additional guidance as it pertains to COVID-19 and the procedures we will follow.
Let’s have a great first week back, Chiefs! The best is yet to come.
