Dear Families of St. Michael Academy,
We are beginning to plan for the end of the school year in the midst of the pandemic. To ensure a safe and orderly retrieval of items your child left at school and to drop off of school books, we have created a schedule. The following dates; Wednesday June 17th and Thursday June 18th have been set aside for the exercise. The schedule provides a window of 15 minutes for retrieval of items.
Scheduling was completed using an alpha format. This ensured families with more than one child in our school make only one trip for the retrieval. You are scheduled to retrieve your child’s belongings according to the schedule below.
We ask the following parameters be strictly followed by the parent retrieving school items:
- Maintain a minimum 2-meter distance at all times, as you enter and exit the building, and as directed by staff supervisors;
- Before entry, review and adhere to the instructions on the self-screening poster from York Region Public Health posted at the front entrance;
- School access is limited to one parent per family;
- To maximize safety, students are not permitted;
- Parents are to proceed directly to their childrens’ classrooms;
- Your child’s belongings will be in a labeled untied bag;
- Gather any additional materials from the student’s work space (eg. coat rack) and ask staff permission if anything is needed from another area; and
- Return any school-owned items (textbooks etc) that are no longer needed to a designated table in the classroom.
In addition we strongly recommend parents entering the school building to wear masks, and to use hand-sanitizers provided at the door. We encourage strict adherence to your allotted time. Finally, note that we are not collecting equipment (lap-tops, iPads et cetera) at this time.
If you have any questions please email at dayna.fitzpatrick@ycdsb.ca
Sincerely,
Dayna Fitzpatrick
Principal
