Ada schools return to traditional schedule on Tuesday
Meri Skilliter, Ada school superintendent, yesterday updated the school community with its next school plan. Here letter to the community follows:
After looking at our numbers, and meeting with the health department today, we are happy to announce that it is our plan to start students back to school on a traditional schedule, all students five days a week, beginning Tuesday, Jan. 19, 2021.
As always, continuing this model will be dependent on staffing numbers, recommendations from the county health department, and any state mandates that might occur.
We believe that the best model, educationally, is to have students here every day, and we will strive to do that for as long as we are safely able to do so.
Please remind students that it will be important to continue to follow masking and social distancing protocols.
It is important to us that you continue to monitor the health of your student(s) and not send them with any of the symptoms of Covid. You can review this information at Frequently Asked Questions (ohio.gov).
For students who are dropped off in the morning, we want to provide some tips to encourage efficient and safe drop off procedures since we will have additional traffic with all students returning.
Students should be prepared to be dropped off once they are on the curb area in the parking lot. Please have your students prepared to exit your vehicle quickly once you are in this area.
Once your car comes to a stop on the curb near the school, have your student exit the vehicle and get to the sidewalk. Middle school and high school students are welcomed to enter the building at door 17, which is at the end of the high school hallway.
There is to be no parking during drop off times. Being prepared for drop off, as well as following the directions of Officer Carl and other school staff, will help keep the drop off area safe and the flow of traffic moving efficiently.
If you have any questions, please let your building principals know.
