News from ICSTo protect the safety and health of our staff and students, Immaculate Conception School will be closed Tuesday. There will be no in-person or on-line classes Tuesday because of the large number of staff members and students in isolation and quarantine. This makes it impossible to maintain our regular schedule with adequate staffing. Thanksgiving break begins Wednesday. In-person and on-line classes will resume Tuesday, December 1.
The break will provide an opportunity for all staff and students in isolation or quarantine to complete the required COVID safety protocol, all those who are feeling ill to recover, and provide additional time for the thorough cleaning and disinfecting of the building.
During this break, please continue to follow the state and health department COVID advisories:
Avoid unnecessary gatherings with people who don’t live in your home.
Avoid unnecessary travel. IF YOU TRAVEL TO AN AREA CONSIDERED A HOTSPOT BY THE STATE OR CDC YOUR STUDENTS MUST QUARANTINE FOR 14 DAYS WHEN YOU RETURN.
Continue to practice social distancing, wearing masks in public places, hand washing, etc.
Students not in quarantine can continue youth sports following the safety procedures put in place.
The kids can't go to the pumpkin patch, so the PTA brought the pumpkin patch to the school! The students got a chance to decorate pumpkins and play games during our Fall Fun Day.
