Greetings Bulldogs, this is your Superintendent Chris Hanke with an update as we officially enter the holiday season. Please be reminded that the first day of winter break begins on Wednesday, December 23rd and runs through Friday, January 1st. School will resume on Monday, January 4th, however the District has made the decision to remain in a remote learning environment through the end of the first semester, the last day of which is January 22nd. This is being done out of an abundance of caution due to the recently spiked positive cases in and around Cuyahoga County. Please know that District leaders and the Board of Education will continue to closely monitor the numbers and the data from the Cuyahoga County Board of Health as trends in that data will continue to inform our decisions.
As we approach winter break, and time away from school, we ask you to exercise thoughtfulness with social gatherings and with travel. Remain vigilant in protecting yourself and others by wearing masks, washing hands, social distancing, keeping your children home when they are sick, and limiting gatherings. No one likes such restrictions, but we do ask that you follow the guidelines for travel as specified by the Ohio Department of Health.
Thank you for your continued partnership in helping to keep our students and our staff safe. Again, your support has been a crucial aspect of our partnership since the beginning of the school year.
We will keep you informed and up-to-date on any issues and concerns as they may unfold in this rapidly changing COVID-19 environment.
We wish you a Happy Holidays, a Happy New Year…and we express our profound gratitude for the personal sacrifices you’ve made for our school community to remain healthy and safe.
Thank you, and GO BULLDOGS!
