B Day

    • This week, we will be starting the Forward Exam for 8th Grade Science and Social Studies.

-8th Grade Science - Monday thru Wednesday

-8th Grade Social Studies - Thursday and Friday

    • The expectation is that your Chromebook is fully charged each day, which is especially important for Forward testing, and you have your charger at school.

    • Also, you need to bring a set of earbuds/headphones and a SSR book to testing each day. Wireless earbuds/headphones are not permitted on this test.

    • Keep in mind cell phones, smart watches and any other personal technology devices need to be keep in your locker during testing. If you forget to drop these items off in your locker, your teacher will ask you to power it down, collect your device, and return it to you at the end of class.

    • As always please remember to be quiet in the halls while testing is going on.

    • A few words about the updated mask decision of the school board.

    • Masks will not be required outside including recess. However, masks will continued to be required in ALL areas of the building with the following exception: in classes where six feet of social distancing can be achieved AND you can be behind barriers.

    • Essentially, classes with smaller number might be able to do this where those with larger numbers may not. This will be at the direction of your teacher. The BIG reason: we want to stay open for in person school as long as possible. And, contact tracing will continue at six feet in all directions per the health department.
