Dear parents and/or guardians,
Next week teachers will begin meeting with students once a week in-person during their Intervention Time. Virtual Intervention Time will occur the other four days a week. Teachers will select those students to see during this time whether in person or virtually. Not every student will be in the building every week. Please carefully read the process we will use when students meet in-person with teachers. In-person groups are small groups of students (no larger than three students at a time) and your teacher will contact you individually offering available dates and times.
Safety Practices - Entering the Building/Dropping Off
- Students and parents should walk to the front door of the building and wait outside where a teacher will greet you. Once the student has self screened with the Health Screener ONLY the teacher and student will enter the building. The student and teacher will go directly to the nurse’s office and have the student's temperature checked by the school nurse. Students must answer NO to the Mehlville School District Health Screening Questions (parents may sign the screener for students)
- Only the student will be allowed in the building - the teacher will meet you at the front door
- Practice social distancing measures even while waiting outside.
- All students and adults must wear a face covering; now REQUIRED for all kindergarten 5th grade students
- Cleaning will take place in between each intervention group
- Provide the name and relationship of the individual who will be picking up the student prior to the Intervention Time and BRING A PHOTO ID when picking up the student EVERY TIME
Safety Practices - Exiting the Building/Picking Up
- Drive around the back of school to Back Parent Pick Up Door and remain in your car
- On a piece of paper (large enough to read from a distance) write the student’s name and teacher’s name and display it in your dashboard
- Have your PHOTO ID ready to show the teacher
- Sign the student out when the student and teacher get to your car
Do not forget that we are serving lunches to everyone at OES from 10:30-12:30 DAILY. Please drive around to the back of the building to pick them up.
Parents, please remind your students that they have to ensure that they are appropriately dressed when they are engaged in any of these Google Meets.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we work together to keep our community safe and healthy. Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information.
