The Martin County School board voted to reopen schools next week. We are excited to welcome students back to school. All A day students will be able to report to school on Monday and Tuesday and B day students will come to school on Wednesday and Thursday. Due to current Covid restrictions, only students who are currently assigned to A day or B day should come to school. All virtual students will need to remain at home at this time.
All students should have a signed attestation form with them when they board the bus in the morning or report to school. Additional forms will be distributed in class. All students are required to wear a mask over their mouth and nose before entering either the school bus or the school building. Additional masks will be provided when you return to school. Please also remember that Covid protocols prevent us from using our water fountains in school, but students are welcome to bring water bottles. Please check with your individual teachers for guidance about bringing your laptop to school, however, most teachers are using the computer during daily instruction.
