Minimum Days continue this week for Parent-Teacher Conferences.

Spring Break is March 21-April 1. We are distributing at-home Covid-19 testing kits for students in kindergarten through 6th grade this week so that you can test your student prior to returning from Spring Break. We will have kits available for pick up by parents Monday through Wednesday at the front of the school from 1:00-3:00 and in the school office 7:00-1:00 and 3:00-4:00.

Weekly testing at Finney helps us slow the spread of Covid-19. It also removes the burden from you to take your children to get tested after every exposure and will fill the weekly testing requirement for sports team participation. You can sign your child up for Tuesday testing at school.covidclinic.org. For questions about testing, contact k12@covidclinic.org. Those who have had Covid-19 within the past 90 days should not test with Covid Clinic.

Please ensure students wear clothing appropriate for school. Shirts must cover midriff. Heelies, Crocs, flip-flops, and slippers are not safe for school. Shoes must be appropriate for physical education. Fake fingernails are not safe for school.

Your child’s VAPA (Visual & Performing Arts) grade on their progress report will be NA (not assessed). You can read about the VAPA standards covered in Art & Music class this quarter here. Y en español.
