In-Person Class Information
In-person class will be held outside both Sunday and Monday - please have your students dress appropriately, especially Monday night for Sundown. The students are required to wear their masks the entire class and we will be socially distant. The outdoor classroom will be setup so that they have their seats/space to stay in. Students will have there temperture checked, please do not leave until you have seen the "wave" from me. Parents will not be allowed in the building. If you chose to stay in the parking lot please keep your masks on and stay socially distant from others. Students will only be allowed in the restrooms one at a time, however please have students use the restroom before they arrive. Hand sanitizer will available and extra masks as needed. We will not be serving any food or drink and do not want them to bring food so please have your students eat before arriving!!!

Not Coming to In-Person Learning
If your students class is meeting in person and your student is not attending in-person but will attend via Zoom please communicate that to your teacher today so we can make sure we have a laptop or ipad in place. 

We have a very limited amount of class time both online and in-person so we want as few distruptions as possible and would like to encourage everyone to arrive on time. If you do not have your login or your students login for Shalom Learning please let me know.
