Beverly Manor's school picture day will be taking place on Wednesday, September 2nd. Please review the following information:
When & Where: September 2nd from 2:00-3:00 pm in the Manor library. *Parents can park on the East end of the building by the Beverly Manor sign and flagpole.
What: Remote learners will be given the option to arrive at school between 2:00-3:00 pm and enter through door 2 by the library to have their picture taken. Mr. Sharp will be working with the Lifetouch photographers to organize the flow of students. Parents may come to the door with their student, drop them off, and then wait for their exit after the picture. All parents and students will need to have a mask when entering the building which the student can remove momentarily for their picture. **Any students that are not able to come in will be notified of another opportunity during the retake day in October.
*In-person students will have their pictures taken on September 2nd as well, but during the school day in our normal fashion.
Thank you!
Just a reminder for all Manor students riding the shuttle in the morning should arrive at John L. Hensey no later than 7:40 a.m. in the morning, in order to make sure you can get on the bus on time for arrival school on time. Thank you for your cooperation!
Another reminder Washington Kids Academy will be closed through September 8th. So, there will be no transportation to or from Kids Academy to John L. Hensey or Beverly Manor during that time. Thank you!
On a positive note, if you attend a home baseball or softball game, and are caught wearing your mask...you just might receive a sweet treat! Mr Sharp will be at tomorrow’s home game and will randomly give out 5 treats to spectators wearing masks! Thank you for your help, we want to keep our kids playing and if mask wearing is what it takes, then masks we will wear! Go Wildcats!
Baseball and Softball fans...the IESA is mandating the wearing of masks by all spectators at home and away games. Please wear your mask (everyone ages 2 and up) if you are attending a game or you may be asked to leave. Also, a reminder that the playground is closed and children should remain seated with the parent/guardian. Thank you for your help with this!!
Saturday Double Headers! Softball will take on DeeMack at home starting at 10:00am. Baseball is on the road at DeeMack also at 10:00am. Baseball game will be played at DeeMack High School. Good luck, Wildcats!!

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
