SCROLL DOWN
Dear Jag Families,
Thank you for your continued partnership and trust during this challenging season. As you know, the safety of our students and staff is of paramount importance. We are writing to inform you that after careful thought and consideration, we have decided to return to our remote program following Thanksgiving Break and up until we return on January 5th. Charter School of New Castle will return to remote instruction for the three weeks nested between extended breaks in December (November 30th - December 18th).
We are and remain extremely proud that the effectiveness of the safety protocols and measures in place has resulted in zero spread within the CSNC school setting. We also recognize that the number of daily cases are increasing and are aware of the projected potential impact of holiday celebrations and social gatherings on the community spread. One of the key safety measures that we were able to implement prior to the start of our hybrid program in October was ensuring that all staff and hybrid students provided proof of a negative test prior to entry. Because there is such a tight turnaround between school opening on November 30th and the Thanksgiving holiday, we have made the decision to return to remote learning primarily due to the inability to properly receive and track tests within the key time following the holiday yet prior to school restarting on November 30th.
It is our hope to return to the hybrid model in January but this decision will be made based off the community spread data. In the case that we return in January, all students in the hybrid program are required to provide proof of a test prior to building reentry.
