Weekly COVID-19 Update
Cumulative Case count: (34)
We’ve had several more students and one additional staff member test positive over the past week. For context, within Placer County right now, roughly 1/30 residents have tested positive within the past two weeks. If there is a ‘positive’ about this, it does appear that the ‘Omnicron’ strain seems to be milder than previous COVID strains. For COVID testing locations, Placer County Public Health hosts a website that, with a couple clicks, basically gives access to every testing location within the county. The PCPH website with testing site information is HERE. Additionally, the federal government announced a +/- ‘free tests for all’ program, and the link to this program is HERE. Additionally, at some point in the next few weeks, I’ve been told that the County will be distributing to us N-95 level masks to distribute for students and staff.
REMINDER: Updated CDPH guidance has reduced the isolation requirement for individuals that have tested positive for COVID-19 to five days IF symptoms have resolved and they test negative on day five. Our basic parent-student COVID protocols are here.
Re-Enrollment for 2022/2023
As we prepare to do our enrollment lottery, we will be asking families to let us know if they plan to return in the fall. We do this so that we know how many students we can enroll from the lottery. Watch for information coming in the next couple of weeks regarding re-enrollment.
Yearbook Club for 5th-8th Graders
We are going to be hosting a Yearbook Club on Mondays after school. Students will be assisting in the design and development of this year’s school yearbook. The signup flyer is available on our website and is also included here.
After School Basketball Club for 4th-8th Graders
We’re going to host a Basketball Club that’ll be on Fridays after school from 3:15p - 4:15p, starting today, Friday, 1/21/21. The club is intended for kids interested in basketball that are not on one of the school teams. There is no cost for the club, but space is limited to 15 students. To sign up for the club, please click here.
Eighth Grade Dedications in the Yearbook
Parents/Guardians of 8th graders, the 8th Grade Yearbook Dedication is a very special way to honor your child and their graduation. The Yearbook Committee asks that you submit a personal message of 100 words or less and one jpeg photo. Messages should include a closing that clearly states who is sending the message. Please include "8th grade dedication-" followed by your child's full name in the subject line of your email. Please submit your message and photo to mmcayb@gmail.com. For inspiration check out submissions in last year's yearbook.
