Texas, remember the importance of social distancing. If you must go out, avoid public spaces and keep your distance from others (at least 6 feet). If we continue to follow valuable public health guidance, fewer of our friends & family will be affected by COVID-19. #StayHomeTexas

#COVID19 lives on droplets in the lungs of people with the virus, even if they don’t have symptoms. When infected people breathe, the virus enters the air. If you can’t #StayHome, wear a mask/scarf/bandana, stay 6 feet apart, and wash your hands. #DontGoViral
#COVID19 vive de gotas en los pulmones de las personas con el virus incluso si no tienen síntomas.Cuando las personas contagiadas respiran, el virus entra al aire.Si no puedes quedarte en casa #StayHome, use una bufanda/pañuelo, manténgase a 6 pies de distancia y lávese las manos
I just want to remind everyone that as teachers grade their first round of papers to NOT stress over grades in the gradebook. Teachers have to enter a missing or zero grade for alerts to come across parent portal. This is ONLY for documentation purposes. Assignment due dates are flexible. Please stay in touch with the teachers on when you can turn assignments in.
Remember that we are all working with a LOT of grace for each other. This is new to each of us!! As always, if a student is working hard and communicating with their teachers we will do what a child needs to succeed.
Students will be able to get into lockers again this Wednesday, April 8th. Anyone entering the building will be medically screened.

Common symptoms of #COVID19 are fever, dry cough, & shortness of breath. If you have mild symptoms, call your doctor & #StayHome. If you develop serious symptoms, such as trouble breathing, pressure in the chest, or bluish lips or face, call your doctor & seek care immediately.

Los síntomas comunes de #COVID19 son fiebre, tos seca y dificultad para respirar.Si tiene síntomas leves, llame a su médico y quedate en casa.Si desarrolla síntomas graves, como dificultad para respirar o presión en el pecho, busque atención médica de inmediato. #StayHome
Before social distancing, each person with #COVID19 spread the virus to 2.5 more people. At that pace, most would get it, and many more people would die. But we can slow the spread. That’s why we all #StayHome. #ApartTogether we slow coronavirus.
You can spread #COVID19 without knowing you have it. Whether you have symptoms or not, #StayHome. If you have to go out, wear a mask/bandana/scarf, regularly wash your hands, and stay 6 feet apart. We must stay #ApartTogether to slow coronavirus. https://tea.texas.gov/staywell
Just a reminder, if you need extra help with assignments please reach out to the school or teacher. We can set up a phone call, zoom meeting, FaceTime...whatever we need to do to help!

There seems to be a default reminder setting through evite for Prom. I have heard from several students today that they had received this reminder. The issue should be corrected, but I wanted to make sure that everyone is aware that Prom WILL NOT take place April 4th as originally planned. Please email me with any questions or concerns!
Thanks!
