Mt Lake Public School Update

THE MT LAKE PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT HAS ANNOUNCED THAT HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WILL RETURN TO IN-PERSON LEARNING ON MONDAY. 

 

MT LAKE STUDENTS IN THE 9TH THROUGH 12TH GRADES HAVE BEEN ON DISTANCE LEARNING SINCE NOVEMBER 30TH.  FOLLOWING A SPECIAL SCHOOL BOARD MEETING THIS WEEK, IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT THE SENIOR HIGH STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO ATTEND SCHOOL IN PERSON STARTING ON MONDAY.   

 

THE MT LAKE SCHOOL DISTRICT HAS THE FOLLOWING ADVICE FOR PARENTS OF ALL STUDENTS: 

 

DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD TO SCHOOL IF THEY ARE SICK, UNDER QUARANTINE, OR HAVE TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID-19.   TELL THE SCHOOL DISTRICT IMMEDIATELY ABOUT THE CHILD’S SITUATION.   

 

IF YOUR CHILD IS SICK, OR MIGHT HAVE COVID-19 SYMPTOMS, HAVE THEM TESTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. 

 

INFORM THE SCHOOL DISTRICT IF YOUR CHILD HAS SYMPTOMS OR IS BEING TESTED.   

 

IF ANY MEMBER OF YOUR FAMILY HAS SYMPTOMS, THEY SHOULD ALSO BE TESTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. 

 

ACCORDING TO SCHOOL OFFICIALS, THE DISTRICT NEEDS COOPERATION FROM ALL STUDENTS, PARENTS, STAFF AND THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY IN ORDER TO KEEP ALL STUDENTS ATTENDING CLASS IN PERSON.  EVERYONE SHOULD CONTINUE TO WEAR FACE COVERINGS, MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING, REDUCE THE SIZE OF GATHERINGS AND LIMIT TRAVEL.    

 

THE DISTRICT UNDERSTANDS THIS WILL BE DIFFICULT DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON, BUT THEY BELIEVE THAT THIS IS THE BEST WAY TO HELP ENSURE THAT THE MT LAKE PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT DOES NOT HAVE TO GO BACK INTO DISTANCE LEARNING.
