Distance Learning
If a student has a family member diagnosed with COVID:
School closures will take place at the discretion of the Head of School, Division Heads, and the Board. We will follow State and local authorities and best practices from peer institutions. In the event School closes down, we will enter into Distance Learning for at least 10 days. School will reopen post investigation.
If a student has been diagnosed with COVID:
COVID has not robbed us of our pedagogical convictions. We still have the same amazing students and the same full-of-life classrooms with interactive, engaging lessons. The modifications we have made are simple. Students adapted to many of these modifications even before returning to school—wearing face coverings, keeping extra distance from friends, and regularly washing hands. Although we long to return to the days when students enter class without masks and can embrace their friends without hesitation, we are delighted that a joyful education is still possible."
