Dear St. George School Families,
I hope you and your family continue to remain safe and healthy. As we begin the final quarter of the school year next week, we are excited to announce that full days of school instruction will resume on Tuesday, April 6, 2021. The return to full-day school instruction will provide our students seven (7) weeks of full instruction before the summer break. Please note that Spring Break dates are March 29 - April 2 for students. To provide for additional teacher planning for the return to full-day instruction, Monday, April 5, 2021, will be a School Improvement Day. No students will be in attendance and no remote learning will occur on April 5, 2021.
The daily schedule beginning April 6, 2021, is:
- ∙ Grades K-4: 7:50 a.m. until 2:35 p.m. (in-person or remotely)
- ∙ Grades 5-8: 8:20 a.m. until 3:15 p.m. (in-person or remotely)
- ∙ Pre-K: No changes to the current schedule
If the lengthening of the school day changes your family’s transportation plans and your child now needs to ride the bus, please call the school office at 815-933-1503 no later than Friday, March 26, 2021, so that arrangements can be made for a bus assignment. If you need additional information regarding your child’s home arrival time, please contact our Transportation Director, Mr. Clifton, at [email protected].
Additionally, we are pleased to announce that the concert band students will begin attending class in-person on Monday, March 15, 2021. Ms. Stedman Conrad will provide additional details to band students and parents.
We look forward to providing full-day instruction for our students for the first time in more than a year. We appreciate your cooperation, patience, and understanding as we transition into full school day instruction.
Sincerely,
Helen Boehrnsen
