School Closure Updates
May 13, 2020
Good Afternoon Panther Families-
This is Mr. Olguin with your Daily Update during the school closure.
The following are a few things to keep in mind:
- As you are aware the school calendar has been adjusted and schools will continue with the Distance Learning process until Friday, May 29. During this time minimal staff will be on site to assist families, please call (775)-265-6100 if you have questions or concerns.
- Teachers will continue their digital office hours from 9:30 am - 2:30 pm. The best way to contact the teacher will be through email. If you are unable to contact your teacher via email, please call (775)-265-6100.
- Douglas County School District will be issuing second semester credit toward Promotion from middle school. It is important that every student make every effort to participate and complete assigned work. Students choosing not to participate and complete work will not receive credit for those classes and run the risk of potential retention in their current grade level.
- We will be sending out information regarding the return of Chromebooks, Packets, Textbooks, Instruments, etc. so please look to the website and/or I/C for that information.
Free Student meals will continue to be available for pickup each week on Mon./Wed.//Fri. from 9:00 am - 11:00 am at the back of the Cafetorium.
And finally, we will answer question we have been receiving regarding Yearbooks, student medication kept on site, Student belongings still in P.E. lockers as well as work packet for the last weeks of school for those students without access to the internet.
