Good evening Plain Local Families,
This is Superintendent Brent May with some back to school reminders. I hope you and your family had a fun and restful summer break. While I know our students may not be ready for it quite yet, we are looking forward to welcoming our students back to school and we are especially looking forward to our Open House events this week!
All families should have received an email on Friday with important back to school dates, links and more for each of their students. Please take the time to thoroughly read through this email and review all of the information for a successful back to school experience. If you have any questions at all please call or email your school building.
After a lot of hard work this summer we have an exciting update on our air conditioning project. We are thrilled that all of our schools will have AC during the 2022-2023 school year. I encourage students to bring layers to school with them as they adjust to the temperature in their classrooms. While we are so excited to share this update, just like every other industry, we did run into a few supply chain delays with this project. The installation of air conditioning at Barr Elementary is still underway as I record this message. We are confident that the AC will be installed within the first quarter of the new school year at Barr but I wanted to make sure Barr Elementary families knew where we stood with this project.
I want to close with some important safety reminders as we start a new school year. Please remember to be diligent with personal safety at your home and remind your children of the importance of following safety procedures at school. Please make sure to bring your ID with you any time to enter the school and buzz the main entrance door when arriving. Safety is our number one priority as we start a new school year and welcome our students back into our halls and classrooms.
I am looking forward to a wonderful school year, have a great evening and Go Eagles!
