AdaSAFE reached out to the Ada Schools the first week of August with questions from community members. HERE are the answers received.
Meri Skilliter, superintendent, emphasized in her reply: "We have answered below to the best of our knowledge at this time. Things are always evolving and change is inevitable, but we have done our best to answer as things sit today."
Mrs. Skilliter stressed the importance of parents emailing or calling their building principals, as it is best to have questions answered directly to the parent/ guardian as applies specifically to their child or children, as each child's circumstances are a bit different.
