Reopening Plan
The complete reopening plan which was submitted to the state (8.10.20) is available here (click here).
Surveys were posted to ParentSquare on 8.10.20 and were due by noon on August 13. If you are unable to complete this survey online, your child has been placed into Hybrid Learning with District-provided transportation. Principals are currently working on cohorting / buildings schedules and that information will be communicated at a later time. Please contact your child's school if you have any questions or concerns at this point. A summary of the survey results is available here (click here). This does not change our plans or the votes that our School Committees made.
Initial reopening plans have been presented to all four School Committees as of July 31, 2020. We are happy to share this information with you below.

Chromebook Information
Loaner Chromebooks provided to families during the school closure (grades PK - 8) were due to be returned by June 25 unless there are children at home enrolled in the Extended School Year (ESY) program. If you have not yet returned your loaner Chromebook, please reach out to your child's principal (for the 2019-2020 school year) as soon as possible to arrange a return of the device. Please note that students who were enrolled at the High School for the 2019-2020 school year do not need to return their devices as they are part of the 1:1 program and as such keep their device until they graduate.
We are now in the process of cleaning and prepping our inventory of Chromebooks for distribution once school starts. Additional information on how to obtain a Chromebook Loaner for the 2020-2021 school year will be shared later in August.
If you have any questions please email distancelearning@slrsd.org.
