Lunch with children: Starting on Tuesday, January 18, parents will be able to schedule a day to eat lunch with their child at school provided that an alternate table or room is available for the day requested. All efforts will be made to accommodate requests but limitations will exist and flexibility on possible dates is appreciated. Elementary School entry: Elementary students who are dropped off at school will no longer walk to the west playground entrance in the morning. Students may now be dropped off at the North Entrance and begin entering the building once the first bus releases their passengers. This is typically between 7:50 and 7:55 a.m. Parents should continue to utilize the front row of parking spaces and be mindful of stopping in areas that might block a bus from reaching its designated slot.

Southeast of Saline is experiencing an increase in illness related absences. The board of education met tonight to discuss the situation. We ask that all parents be diligent with following protocols, including performing self checks and staying home if ill. The school will emphasize hand washing and cleaning. Although masks are optional, with the increase in illness it is worth considering again, even if for a short time. Covid is certainly a part of the current illness spike but we are also seeing other communicable illnesses such as Influenza A. The only way to ensure it does not spread is to keep it out of the building. Please keep children at home if they have symptoms. The level of illness is higher in the secondary than the elementary at this point. We are concerned the growth of illness over the last few days will disrupt school and we ask for your assistance in addressing the health and welfare of our students. Thank you for your efforts to keep SES safe and in school.

Reminder: Tonight is the SES AfterProm meeting at 7pm at The District. Final fundraising decisions will be made so all junior and senior parents are asked to attend. Your input is important. Thank you!
