Parents -
We are working on plans for the 2020-2021 school year and are exploring multiple options based on the available guidance from the Illinois Department of Public Health and the Illinois State Board of Education. While we haven't received specific details for the next phase, we have models from other states and CDC recommendations that have provided the foundation for our initial return plans.
As previously mentioned, we have multiple plans started. As we await the official guidance, we would like to have input from families as this will help us to finalize our plans once state guidance is received. We have created a short, anonymous survey to help us understand what is most important to you (our families) regarding our return in August. We are strongly advocating, with other local districts, for a safe and reasonable return plan. We want our students back in our classrooms but understand school will have to look different to make that happen.
The survey was emailed to all guardians today, 6.23.2020 @ 12:00 PM and also posted on your Family Access page. Please complete one survey per family by Tuesday, June 30th.
Your input is important!
Thank you,
Olympia Administration
