Weekly Update – Friday 3/19/21 – Clarke Middle School

CLARKE MS UPDATE – Friday, March 19, 2021

Next week 3/22-3/26 we will be running classes A-E on your schedule.

Outdoor Lunch Reminders – the snow and ice have melted and we look forward to outdoor lunch next week.

Teams have designated outdoor dining spaces, ensuring fewer numbers and more space for each student.
PLEASE help your student come prepared for outdoor lunch – bring a beach towel, a small folding chair, a yoga mat, a jacket – anything to make the experience more enjoyable.
DIY Project – Make your own cushion-bag for school.
We’re looking for volunteers to help monitor lunches each day (10:30 – 12:15), helping to make this full-return possible. If interested, please complete the following Google form.

Full Return Date – Wednesday, April 28th.

Please review the informational letter from Dr. Hackett outlining the process for returning in full.

If you are interested in changing the learning model for your student, please complete the Learning Model Change Form – Due by 6pm on March 25th.
If the form is NOT completed – students will be automatically enrolled in their current learning model.
Our current model of “cohorting” students will remain, as we work to minimize the need for hallway transitions.

Trimester 2 Extended – due to on-going scheduling prep for the full-return.

Trimester 2 Report Cards – will go live on Monday, May 3rd.

Surveillance Testing Update:

The testing program has been extended to April vacation, thanks to support from LEF!
Cohort A students should return their completed samples to Clarke BEFORE 9 a.m. on Monday, 3/22.
On Thursday, 3/25 we will hand out COVID test kits for our in-person Cohort A and full-time students in Homeroom to be returned on Monday 4/5.
