Dear Parents and Guardians,
Thank you for your responses to our new academic model survey. This allowed us to plan for those who will commit to a 4-day in-person option, and we are ready to offer this option to different classes in phases over the next month.
ACADEMIC MODEL EXPANSION TO INCLUDE A 4-DAY IN-PERSON OPTION
- Seniors – Monday, March 22
- Freshmen – Monday, April 12
- Sophomores and Juniors – Monday, April 19
We will continue to follow safety practices to mitigate the risk of COVID-19, including temperature and health screenings, wearing masks, and practicing social distancing. Given the size of some classrooms and the need to social distance, there is the possibility that some 4-day in-person students may be directed to an overflow location to attend certain classes. Teachers and administration are going to do our best to rotate students in the overflow location so time in that location is limited. The exact number of classes that will need to utilize an overflow location cannot be determined until we know who is committed to coming to campus 4 days a week.
In order for us to be prepared for the number of students who will be coming to campus, we need parents to complete a form to commit to an academic model for the remainder of the school year. We will be sending this form out separately from this communication. The senior form will be sent today, and the freshman, sophomore, and junior forms will be sent out on March 24.
Please continue to pray for our school community as we expand our academic model and welcome more students to campus.
Sincerely,
The Mount Saint Joseph Administration
