Lyndonville Central School welcomed back a portion of their students to campus today. Students in grades 4, 5, 6, 11 and 12 were greeted with warm welcomes from staff and administration. Throughout the next two days the remainder of the students who selected in-person learning will return to campus.
“The district is looking forward to the 2020-21 school year and has worked diligently to ensure the health and well-being of our students,” said Superintendent Smith. While the school has two body thermal scans stationed at the main entrances and non-contact thermometers to assess student and staff temperature, the district reminds families to check their child’s temperature before coming to school. If a student’s temperature is greater than 100 degrees and/or exhibits COVID-19 symptoms he/she must remain home.
To ensure social distancing, Lyndonville is utilizing the Main Street elementary school for Pre K and grades 5 and 6. Classrooms and a lunch area have been set up for these students. To reinforce safety procedures, district administration are hosting classroom meetings to discuss the importance of proper hygiene, masks and social distancing.
“All of us have a role in keeping our schools safe and preventing the spread of COVID-19,” said Smith. “Together we can work to keep our district healthy and open.”
