SCHOOL INFO

December 10, 2021

Dear L&G Families:

You will soon receive a mailing with progress reports and Winter Activity information!  Please be on the lookout for this, as the WA forms will need to be completed and returned to school!

We are very excited to be able to livestream all of our basketball teams’ games this winter.  In order to go online, follow this link.  Go Rebels!!!

Upcoming events:

• Dec 23, 2021 - Early Release Day

• Dec 24, 2021 - Jan 2, 2022 - Winter Recess Break

Vaccination Clinics:

Please see the Vermont Department of Health website for opportunities for your 5-11 year old children to access a vaccination.  We strive to get to a place where once the state announces we can go mask-free (after achieving 80%) that we can celebrate that freedom knowing that our children are protected by several mitigation measures.  We also heard of one coming up in Brattleboro: VDH will be holding Community Pediatric Clinics (5-11yr old) at the VFW at 40 Black Mountain Rd, Brattleboro-- 12/28/21 9am-3pm and 1/18/22 9am-3pm.  If you struggle with signing up using the on-line system, please call the vaccine registration line at 855-722-7878.

SCHOOL INFO

December 3, 2021

Dear L&G Families:

It’s hard to believe that we are now in the month of December!  (Yesterday’s snow sure helped, though!)  We have just under 3 weeks left prior to an extended vacation, and we recognize that the holiday season - while celebratory and happy for many, also brings challenges for many families, and therefore, some of our students.  Emotional regulation becomes more challenging as students ponder extended periods of time away from our structured environment, and then the challenge of returning to school afterwards is also tough.  Our staff is working hard to provide as much support as we can for the students, but please don’t hesitate to let us know if we can help in any way!

We are very excited to be able to livestream all of our basketball teams’ games this winter.  In order to go online, follow this link.  Go Rebels!!!

Upcoming events:

• Dec 8, 2021 - Early Release Day (Teacher In-Service)

• Dec 23, 2021 - Early Release Day

• Dec 24, 2021 - Jan 2, 2022 - Winter Recess Break

Vaccination Clinics:

Please see the Vermont Department of Health website for opportunities for your 5-11 year old children to access a vaccination.  We strive to get to a place where once the state announces we can go mask-free (after achieving 80%) that we can celebrate that freedom knowing that our children are protected by several mitigation measures.  Please see yesterday’s communication via email regarding a clinic here on Dec 8th.

Have a great vacation!
