Update – March 12, 2022

Dear Sprague Families,

This was a special week!  The Covid transition allowed us to happily open the doors to our Sprague family!  As a result, the building was buzzing all week long reminiscent of years past.  

Thank you to the PTO and the many parent volunteers for making the Book Fair a financial and social success for all!

I am pleased to share that the Covid transition this week was quiet and smooth.  Classroom teachers and I reminded both students and staff that personal decisions that are made regarding mask wearing are fully supported with no questions asked.  As a Sprague family, we support one another and that we did!

Lunch Transition

• Sprague will officially make the transition from the gym and 6 feet distance back to the cafeteria, using tables, and no specific social distancing requirements

• This transition will be on Monday, March 14th 

• The lunch expectations are as follows:

• Although no social distancing requirements, we have set up the lunch tables such that it allows for natural distancing – students will be remind to be mindful of distance during lunch times

• Students will remain in assigned seats – this will be for the immediate transition allowing us to monitor and adjust, if needed – as the monitoring occurs, we will consider free seating by assigned class

• No sharing of food at any time

• Hands to themselves especially near food

• Respectful and mindful of each others’ space
