Greendale Schools is offering families a choice of in-person or fully digital learning when school resumes on September 1. In either circumstance, the district is firmly committed to providing students with high-quality educational programming. As you consider the option that is best for the students in your family, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has created this tool to help families make informed decisions about the return to school. The information is designed to help parents, caregivers, and guardians weigh the risks and benefits of available educational options to help them make decisions about sending their child back to school.
Families received an email with the Student Registration Form link in their inboxes. Please complete one survey for each student in your household. Please note: all GMS and/or GHS students in a family that chooses in-person learning for their children will attend school on the same days of the week. If the students in your family DO NOT have the same last name, please indicate that on your registration form where asked so we can ensure all family members choosing in-person learning are assigned to attend school on the same day.
The decisions made by families regarding enrollment will be a commitment for the first grading period of the school year. For elementary students, that is the first trimester, which ends November 24, 2020. For middle and high school students, that is the end of the first semester, January 15, 2021.
The COVID-19 public health emergency is constantly changing and we are receiving updates and new information from local health authorities regularly. We are grateful for your support and patience while we work through these challenges. Our primary goal is to return students and staff to a safe environment. We continue to take cautious, strategic steps forward to make decisions around safety, learning, and social and emotional needs of students and families.
So that we can fully prepare to serve our families and account for staffing, please respond by August 6, 2020.
Be well and stay healthy,
Kim Amidzich
