Great 1st day in the books! As we begin preparing for dismissal, I would like to remind you that we may be splitting some routes to ensure lower numbers. Times of arrival will be worked out over the next couple of weeks. Manor shuttle to Hensey will be leaving just before 11:15 today to get the bus back for the next run. Thank you for your patience as we work it out!!

New Skyward Self-Certification Tool for In-Person Learners! We are officially into day one and thank everyone for their patience with our new processes. One new item that may make things even quicker (especially for car riders with their guardians) is the new Health Screening tool on your Family Access screen in Skyward. Follow the directions provided daily to self-certify your child as healthy and symptom free, then take a screenshot to share with the staff member to proceed straight into the building. *You will need a phone to show proof of your self-certification in the car lane or at the front door. If students/parents do not show this proof, they will be screened before entering. Directions for Self-Certification: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1POFKPK4Zp_0pAAQZl9yHDEAvl8ATH-Y4/view?usp=sharing

Bus schedules have been sent out via Skyward message. We are working to get them updated on our website as well. Please be patient as we adjust times over the next couple of weeks. We will be splitting up routes to minimize student numbers on the buses. Students riding buses will not be marked tardy for late bus arrivals. If your student is signed up for a bus but will not be riding, please notify the classroom teacher.

JOHN L. HENSEY We have been getting lots of calls about getting school supplies. We would like to clear things up. 1st thru 3rd grade students will bring all of their supplies with them on the first day of school. Kindergarten students will need to bring all of their supplies with them to the screening next week. Staff will be all around the building to help students get them to their class.

Dear Parents and Guardians, In addition to our Wildcats Return Plan 2020-2021 that was recently shared with parents and staff, we are providing the information below to assist you with planning for the start of a new school year. We are committed to keeping our schools open when possible, and we appreciate your support in this effort. 1. HAVE A BACK-UP PLAN FOR CHILD CARE – School could be cancelled at any time for a variety of issues related to COVID-19. These may be short- or long-term closures. This does not mean we will close school at the drop-of-a-hat - we are committed to keeping our schools open when it is possible for us to do so. This is a heads-up, however, that similar to being in a hazardous winter weather pattern, school closures could come at any time, and with short notice. We will use our mass calling system and social media to notify parents when school closures occur. 2. MASK-UP ON BUSES AND IN SCHOOLS – We are serious about this! Face coverings are required for everyone entering a school bus, or a school building. Face coverings must remain on at all times while on buses and in buildings. The only exceptions are when students are being supervised during lunch, snack time, recess and/or outdoor P.E (while maintaining social distancing). Students who arrive to board buses or enter schools without a face covering, will be provided with a disposable face mask. Again, we look forward to the start of a new school year! Sincerely, Chad Allaman, Superintendent

Thank you for your patience as we are finalizing bus stop times. They will be posted on Monday afternoon. Reminder that times are approx, especially these first couple weeks. It is always a good idea to have your child at their stop at least 5 minutes earlier than their scheduled time. Masks will be required on all buses and temperatures will be taken prior to loading.
