08.16.2020 McKelvie Update

Dear McKelvie Families~

It's hard to believe that school is starting in less than two weeks! Below are some important updates about the upcoming school year.  More information will be coming later this week.  

Infosnap Registration and Placement Information:
Schools are working hard to complete their hybrid and remote placements for students based on the information we have received from parents over the past couple weeks. Due to the Hybrid schedule, this has delayed our typical launch date for Infosnap. (Returning Student Verification)

Registration will be going out to parents on Wednesday, August 19th. High school students will have immediate access to their schedules while students at McKelvie and Lurgio will receive notifications of their placements after registration. 

I anticipate McKelvie placement going out to families by Thursday, August 20th.  We had to completely redo the placement process in order to create a hybrid model and offer a fully remote model, causing a delay.

Tents and Picnic Table Donations:
We are looking to create outdoor spaces for classrooms and are in need of tents and picnic tables. If you can donate or lend us either, we would greatly appreciate it! Please email me at asdotj@sau25.net if you can lend or donate a tent or a picnic table.

Before School Program:
We will continue to have the Before School Program this year for students. Kids will sit at individual desks in the cafeteria. THIS LINK contains additional information as well as the registration form.

Bedford Strings Program:
The Manchester Community Music School Strings Ensemble Program, in partnership with the Bedford School District, is once again offering strings lessons for interested students. These lessons will be done remotely. Please click THIS LINK for additional information.

Stay tuned for more information this week about placement, supply lists, Chrome Book and text book distribution for fully remote students, and other odds and ends regarding the 2020/2021 school year!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
