Dear Shoshone-Bannock School staff and families:

I would like to thank everyone for their patience, flexibility, and support as we provide meals and instruction for all our students in their home setting. We have been in contact with federal, state, and local agencies on how to best proceed with our current school year.

SOFT CLOSURE EXTENDED TO END OF SCHOOL YEAR (MAY 20, 2020)

We will be extending the soft closure of school through the end of our school year which was scheduled to end on May 20, 2020. This means that we will continue to provide instructional packets for all our students. If you are having issues getting your packet, please contact the school between 8 am and 1 pm on the weekdays.

SCHOOL OFFICE HOURS DURING SCHOOL SOFT CLOSURE

Monday – Friday 8 am – 1 pm (We have a limited staff. Please call back in a few minutes if someone doesnt pick up.)
Please call ahead if you are coming in to pick up a packet or something else at the school.

BREAKFAST/LUNCH MEAL DELIVERY TO CONTINUE THROUGH June 30, 2020

All of our meals are now being delivered via our bus routes and they leave the school at 9 am. However, if you need to drop by to pick up a meal, please call ahead so we can make sure we have the meals prepared for you when you drop by. In addition, if you are not on our list or need to change bus routes, please call in before 8:30 am so we can correct our delivery list for that day. Even though school will officially end on Wednesday, May 20, 2020, we will continue delivering meals through June 30, 2020. However, we will not be delivering on Memorial Day, Monday, May 25, 2020.page1image1532515504page1image1532515760

INSTRUCTIONAL PACKETS, PACKET TURN IN and LOCKER CLEANOUT

We are switching to providing 10-day instructional packets. These will be going out on April 20, 2020 and May 4, 2020. We will be setting up a schedule for student to turn in their packet work and clean out their lockers. If feasible, we are looking at scheduling afternoon times on Wednesday, May 13, 2020 – Friday, May 15, 2020 for students to come to school for this.

GRADUATION

At this time, the School Board hasn’t made any plans for what graduation will be or look like if we are still under a stay-home order or limited to the number of people who can congregate. Hopefully by April 30, 2020 we will know more to make a plan for both 8th grade and high school graduations.

Sincerely,
Allen D. Mayo, Ed.S.- Principal Shoshone-Bannock Jr/Sr High School
