Dear McKelvie Families~
I hope everyone is enjoying this chilly weekend! It's hard to believe we have finished Quarter 1 and that it's already November! Teachers will be sending out information about virtual parent-teacher conferences this week, if they have not already done so. Online report cards will be available on Friday. Please scroll to the bottom to see some fun pictures from this week!

Contact Tracing through NH DHHS:
It has been the district’s experience lately that NH DHHS is very delayed in contacting families with contact tracing information, and as a result, it’s possible that students come to school without knowing they have been in close contact with a COVID positive person (and should be quarantining). Please know that if your child has been contact traced as a result of contact within school, you will be called by the school (most likely, Ruthanne Stefekos, our nurse) rather than wait for DHHS. However, if the contact happens outside of school, we will not know about it. My ask is that if your child tests positive, you contact the parents/guardians of any child who has been contact traced as a result of outside of school activities, so that the child can quarantine and/or get tested in a timely fashion. Hopefully, things will slow down soon at DHHS. Thank you!
