Parents, Guardians, and Families,

The Central Consolidated School District Board of Education has approved students in grades PreK – 5^th (only) to return back to school following a hybrid model. This model pertains to students whose parents have requested their student return to the traditional classroom learning atmosphere, all other students will continue learning remotely.

The schedule for the hybrid instructional model will include a shortened school day that will start at 8:30AM and release students at 2:00PM, with buses running ½ hour later then their previous scheduled time for pickup. The following is the startup timelines for the Hybrid Model:

• Monday, November 2^nd - this will be a “dry run” for students to attend the hybrid model

• Tues. & Wed., November 3^rd and 4^th - debrief and troubleshoot potential concerns

• November 5^th and 6^th – Hybrid instruction at Eva B. Stokely

• Monday, November 9^th - First full week of Hybrid Re-entry

To ensure student and staff safety:

• All students with a fever or related Covid19 symptoms should not attempt to come to school

• Students will wear a face mask covering and social distance while on school grounds

• Students will not be allowed to bring backpacks to school

• No food will be allowed to be brought from home (one reusable water bottle will be provided)

• Parents need to read and adhere to the CCSD Transportation Policy provided
