AMPLIFY ENGLISH/LANGUAGE ARTS

We are thrilled at how the launch of the AMPLIFY program is going in 6th-8th grade English/Language Arts! As we promised when we asked the community to support our schools in the 2020 referendum, a key commitment (in addition to MAJOR capital projects) was to provide our students and teachers with updated, best practice resources for learning. AMPLIFY is that for our 6th-8th graders! For more information on the program, please check out this letter from the E/LA teachers! They are doing SENSATIONAL work!!!

FOX'S CLOSET

The Fox's Closet at Stanton is currently collecting gently used, clean middle school-appropriate clothing that will be available for Stanton students to browse through and take home with them. There is a donation box in the hallway near the office. We are accepting jackets, scarves, hats, mittens, jeans, shirts, sweaters, leggings, pants, shorts, skirts, and dresses. Please support our students by donating clothing that you no longer need to our Fox's Closet.

COVID PROCEDURES

For a POSITIVE COVID case, the following is required

Positive individual isolation period of 5 days at home. The student may RETURN ON DAY 6 as long as they are symptom free and fever free for 24 hours prior to return.

Medical Guidelines

Please DO NOT send your child to school sick. If they have a fever, vomit, a persistent cough or have diarrhea, please keep them home for at least 24 hours and until they are feeling better. See our Sick Day Guidelines here for more information.
Notify us if they have tested positive for COVID, Flu, Strep or other diagnosed condition so we can partner with you on a plan for them.
We are no longer participating in surveillance testing, but we do have rapid tests on hand. We will only do a rapid test with parent/guardian permission. We can also direct you to easy locations to get PCR tests or at home rapid tests if you need them.
We will not be providing remote access unless specifically needed, and this will be determined on a case by case basis.
