Week 36

 

Our last day of ECO!

The end of the school year is quickly approaching.  We had another great week!  Third graders completed SBAC, we had a glorious day at ECO on Wednesday, and Friday we observed Memorial Day at PA with students from Kindergarten through Grade 12.  We topped the week off with Pizza for Hot Lunch provided by the McCarthy Family!

On Wednesday we had perfect weather for our last day of E.C.O..  We played a couple of fun games in the field followed by a snack.  Then we set off on our hike to the Beaver Pond just off the Ridge Line trail.  At the pond students explored the waters edge, finding salamanders and frogs.  We saw how the beaver constructed a dam and it's lodge, but we had no beaver sightings that day.  There were, however a pair of mallard ducks that swimming on the pond when we arrived.  Thought the hike up was challenging for some, every student persevered and felt proud of their accomplishments!  

In the Classroom students are working on their last writing projects of the year where they are composing original stories.  In math grade 3 began multiplying a single digit number by a double digit number, grade two is adding and subtraction 2 and 3 digit numbers and grade one is adding ones to a double digit number.

The Following message is from Jordan Myerson:

Just a reminder that we are still seeing cases of Covid-19 throughout our schools and communities.  Schools are no longer handing out test kits, The following information was sent by Jordan Myerson, director of Health services for LSUU.

Here is where they can get tests/tested (share this info below) https://www.healthvermont.gov/covid-19/testing/where-get-tested

FREE HEALTH DEPARTMENT TESTING

You can be tested at a Health Department testing site through the end of June, through your health care provider, or at many local pharmacies. People with or without symptoms can be tested at most testing locations.

Free take-home tests that give you rapid results are available at many Health Department testing sites! Testing is recommended for people with symptoms, and close contacts of someone with COVID-19 who are not up to date on vaccines. We encourage Vermonters to have home tests on hand, in case they develop symptoms.

When you make an appointment, you can choose from three types of tests:

• Take-home antigen
• Take-home LAMP (similar to PCR)
• PCR

You can get up to four antigen test kits for each appointment (there are two tests per kit, for eight tests total), but only one LAMP per appointment.

You can make an appointment (online or call 802-863-7240) or just walk in. An appointment guarantees you a test. ASL interpretation is available by video at all Health Department testing sites.

MAKE AN APPOINTMENT Use if you have had testing or a vaccine through the Health Department.

CHECK FOR RESULTS Log in after you get an email saying your results are ready.

CREATE AN ACCOUNT Use if you have never had a test or vaccine through the Health Department.

How to create an account
