Greetings Howe School Families,

I want to take a moment to personally thank you all for your patience and support as we paused in-person instruction this week. We are very appreciative of the hard work and dedication of our students, families, and staff members to keep our children learning through this period. As you know, this pause was implemented to help stop the spread of a covid-19 outbreak in our school. This was a mitigation measure that took place to protect the health of our school, which includes those with high risk due to pre-existing health conditions. While our students have been learning remotely, intensive cleaning has taken place, I have met with the Wayne County Health Department, and we have reviewed all our mitigation plans and procedures with the Health Department and staff to confirm that we are in agreement with current best practices and recommendations.

On Monday, October 18 we will return to in-person learning. To keep us healthy and in school, we need the support of our families to complete the daily covid screener before bringing or sending your child to school. Our staff also screens themselves daily before entering the school building. If you are ever unsure, it is better to keep them out and have them tested before returning to school. If you see any of these symptoms, please use care: cough, fever, shortness of breath, upset stomach, headaches, runny nose, congestion, and/or body aches are all symptoms that should be taken seriously.

Free rapid tests are available daily in the district at the following locations:

Salina Intermediate: Monday -Thursday 7:00am-8:00pm and 3:30 pm-4:30 pm .

Fordson High: Monday – Thursday from 7:00 a.m. – 9:00 a.m. AND 3:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Edsel Ford High: Monday – Thursday from 6:40 a.m. – 7:40 a.m. AND 3:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Dearborn High: Monday – Thursday from 3:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.

For any students who are sent home during the school day with developing symptoms, a test continues to be required for re-entry into school. No exceptions. Likewise, if your child is identified as a close contact and is required to quarantine, all guidelines provided by the principal or covid nurses must be completed prior to return. It is critical that you notify the school if your child tests positive so that we can complete contact tracing. Please know that a person with covid can be contagious for a couple of days prior to the onset of symptoms. All of these measures are important to keep our school healthy and keep us in school. If you have questions please feel free to reach out to me at 313-827-7004.

Thank you, again for your continuous support and dedication to our community.

Respectfully,

Tammy

Sorry I am a little late for this weeks update! This week we are focusing on 1:1 correspondence for Math! Basically, we are working on pairing each object with one and only one number. We will continue to use our counting skills and work on our pairing skills with Halloween themed activities this week. The classroom story of the week is Glad Monster, Sad Monster. A brightly colored, silly, story about feeling and emotions, with a spooky Halloween touch! The kids have been doing a great job listening and giggling at the silly parts. Our letter focus this week is the letter C. We are working hard on practicing our new letter C words and working on our handwriting skills. Lastly our Scholastic News article is all about Pumpkins! Happy First week of October 🙂
