Nayatt Dolphins

Dear Nayatt Families,

Thank you for another great week!  Things are running smoothly and the children are internalizing the routines, both those at school and those at home. Please see the information and links below related to condensed arrival times, flu clinics, school pictures, and lunch ordering.  The updates will go out on Fridays so parents can get to them over the weekend and plan for the week ahead.  Hope this is helpful.

We also appreciate the diligence of families with monitoring symptoms of COVID and keeping kids home when necessary.  We recognize that this is not easy and we are thankful for the cooperation.  Please remember, students can access everything they need using their clever badge if they are out and distance learning.  The clever badge allows them to access Canvas, Freckle, and other sites.  Please remember that their peers are in school and following expectations.  This is not like last spring when we were all at home and we could be more flexible. 

Distance Learning Expectations:

  • Students should be appropriately dressed for learning.Empowering All Students to Excel-Nayatt News Update for Families, 9.28.2020

    Planning for inclement weather/indoor recess:

    • It would be helpful if parents could send legos or other small things that their children like to play with at recess.

    • It should be able to fit in a manageable size tupperware or plastic bin that can fit on a child’s desk.

    • Our staff will work to load the children at dismissal as quickly as possible.
