Welcome Back!!!!
August 17, 2021
Greetings Ed Smith Family,
Welcome back to the new school year! Although school will look a little different once again this year, we are still committed to the pursuit of excellence at Ed Smith School. This year I would like to welcome our PreK families that will be attending PreK in our building instead of being located off-site at Sumner. We are a true PreK-8 now! Our PreK program consists of one 3 year old classroom and one 4 year old classroom. We are excited to have you here this year. Welcome to Ed Smith.
I would also like to welcome our new vice principal, Andrea Ellis-Smith who will lead middle school, while our vice principal, Jen DiBello will lead elementary this year.
In this communication, I wanted to provide you with information regarding school hours, face coverings, arrival/dismissal times and procedures, meals, and visitor policy.
School Hours

Face Coverings
All students and adults are required to wear face coverings in all SCSD buildings. Your nose and mouth must BOTH be covered and the mask must be worn in all shared spaces like hallways, classrooms and bathrooms. Teachers will provide students with opportunities to take “mask breaks” throughout the day. If you child has medical concerns that prohibit them from wearing a mask, please contact the health office to ensure proper documentation is provided. Your child is welcomed and encouraged to wear their own mask, however, we will have masks available in the event they forget one or if theirs becomes soiled.
