families of our Health Mitigation Plan and ask for your help and support. Below are a few of the
strategies that are included in our plans to keep our little Panthers healthy and safe:
Completing a Daily Health Screening form for each child in ParentVue is required.
All staff and students must wear face masks when physical distancing cannot be maintained

Mobile hand sanitizing stations are available at main entrances and hallways.
Enhancing facility cleaning. High-touch surfaces and classroom restrooms will be cleaned
throughout the day.

regardless of option selected. Two meals will be distributed on Mondays and three meals on
Wednesdays. We highly encourage pre-ordering meals through MyPaymnetPlus.com account to ensure
we have meals ready for you at your desired location. If you have not preordered, the meals are on a
first come first serve basis.
School breakfast and lunch will be served daily, at no cost to children who have transitioned back to
campus through a traditional schedule.
