Santiago Charter Newsletter
Friday, September 10, 2021
Thank you for another great week.
As we approach the middle of the trimester, we just want to remind parents to make sure you are regularly checking in on your student's progress through the portal. This is an important step, especially for our 7th graders that are adjusting to having multiple teachers! If you need help accessing the portal, please reach out to the office ASAP.
As a continued reminder, as Covid numbers continue to rise, it is important that we are following the directives from the county about quarantine protocols. Any student that is exposed to anyone with Covid is required to quarantine at home, and we appreciate your help to support us, and your understanding that these directives are mandates for all staff and students at our school. Should you have any questions about these protocols, please feel free to call our office at any time.
