One aspect of returning to school next month will be the requirement of students and faculty to wear facemasks to help mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 virus through the air.  This practice, along with other safety measures, will help to keep our kids safe and healthy.  Please take a moment to review and practice these tips (taken from the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital) with your children to help build confidence and stamina when wearing a mask.

COVID-19: Tips to Help Kids Wear Facemasks

There will be information about the specifics of our Operation Rat Return: Return to School Plan very soon.  Thank you for your patience.  We are all working tirelessly to make sure that your children will still be receiving the same high-caliber educational experience in a safe and welcoming environment.  

Stay safe and healthy, and we’ll see you all soon.
