One thing we know for sure is that it will take a true partnership between the school and the home to effectively support our students during these challenging times.\u00a0 Below are some of the topics that will require parental support.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Home Health Screening:\u00a0<\/strong> All families are required to complete a home health screening each day before their child(ren) leaves for school.\u00a0 This screening must include a temperature check.\u00a0 If your child exhibits any of the symptoms related to COVID-19, they should be kept home from school.\u00a0 Students who continue to exhibit symptoms should be seen by a doctor and provide a note before returning to school.\u00a0 Parents will be periodically required to acknowledge that they are conducting a daily health screening and temperature check of their child(ren).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Daily Student Home Screening Form (one per child):<\/strong>\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/forms.gle\/kLwJ7mC98qi1F2ca6\">https:\/\/forms.gle\/kLwJ7mC98qi1F2ca6<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Symptomatic\/Sick Children:\u00a0<\/strong> Students who exhibit symptoms associated with COVID-19 must stay home from school and be cleared by a doctor and symptom-free before returning to school.\u00a0 Please review this CDC link for more detailed information:\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/if-you-are-sick\/index.html\">https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/if-you-are-sick\/index.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Student Participation and Attendance:<\/strong>\u00a0 Both remote and in-person learners are expected to be present and actively engaged in the learning tasks, ask questions, and virtually collaborate with classmates at home and in school.\u00a0 Students will also be required to complete a variety of self-directed and asynchronous activities. This way of learning is different and there must be a concerted effort between students, parents, teachers, and administrators to ensure its success.

Al dar la bienvenida a nuestros estudiantes a nuestras aulas, reconocemos que su experiencia educativa ser\u00e1 diferente a la de a\u00f1os anteriores. Nadie sabe exactamente qu\u00e9 tan productiva funcionar\u00e1 la combinaci\u00f3n de estudiantes presenciales y remotos en cada aula o qu\u00e9 tan eficientemente funcionar\u00e1n nuestras secciones divididas, pero todos est\u00e1n listos y dispuestos a continuar refinando nuestras pr\u00e1cticas hasta que alcancemos algo que funcione para todos. En otras palabras, seguramente habr\u00e1 algunos obst\u00e1culos en el camino (especialmente en las primeras semanas).\u00a0Todos debemos estar preparados y ser comprensivos mientras nos abrimos camino a trav\u00e9s de esos desaf\u00edos.\u00a0Una cosa que sabemos con certeza es que se necesitar\u00e1 una verdadera asociaci\u00f3n entre la escuela y el hogar para apoyar de manera efectiva a nuestros estudiantes durante estos tiempos desafiantes. A continuaci\u00f3n se muestran algunos de los temas que requerir\u00e1n el apoyo de los padres.<\/p>\n<p>Examen de salud en el hogar:\u00a0Todas las familias deben completar un examen de salud en el hogar todos los d\u00edas antes de que sus hijos se vayan a la escuela. Este examen debe incluir un control de temperatura. Si su hijo presenta alguno de los s\u00edntomas relacionados con COVID-19, no debe ir a la escuela. Los estudiantes que contin\u00faen mostrando s\u00edntomas deben ser examinados por un m\u00e9dico y proporcionar una nota antes de regresar a la escuela. Los padres deber\u00e1n reconocer peri\u00f3dicamente que est\u00e1n llevando a cabo un examen de salud diario y un control de temperatura de su (s) hijo (s).<\/p>\n<p>Formulario de evaluaci\u00f3n diaria del hogar para estudiantes (uno por ni\u00f1o):\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/forms.gle\/kLwJ7mC98qi1F2ca6\">https:\/\/forms.gle\/kLwJ7mC98qi1F2ca6<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Ni\u00f1os sintom\u00e1ticos \/ enfermos:\u00a0Los estudiantes que presenten s\u00edntomas asociados con COVID-19 deben quedarse en casa y no ir a la escuela y ser aprobados por un m\u00e9dico y estar libres de s\u00edntomas antes de regresar a la escuela.

Cuando se trabaja virtualmente en Google Meet,\u00a0la secuencia de &#8220;Chat&#8221; debe usarse solo a petici\u00f3n del maestro o para hacerle una pregunta.<\/p>\n<p>Prevenci\u00f3n y Mitigaci\u00f3n:\u00a0A medida que nos acercamos al fin de semana festivo, es vital que todos sigan practicando las precauciones que han demostrado ser efectivas para mitigar la propagaci\u00f3n de COVID-19.
