LS Plan Details

Grades PreK-2 grade will bring lunch. Parents are encouraged to pack healthy lunches with reusable containers and utensils to reduce trash and choose easy to open packaging for your child. The preferred drink is water or milk. Please no juice, sport drinks or soda. A microwave or refrigerator will not be available for students. Also, parents may not drop off restaurant food during the school day.  

Students will:

• wash hands before and after lunch
• always eat lunch with class (no mixing of classes)
• eat at desk in classroom or outside, both locations with physical distance and no shared surfaces
• only eat food from his or her lunch
• be using plastic, prepackaged utensils in grades 3-4.

Please communicate with nurse and teacher specific needs of students with allergies. Teacher and assistant will carefully monitor.  We may request a class to not bring nut products if a family reports a child has a documented anaphylactic nut allergy. We appreciate your understanding.

Families will be issued credits for unused Sage lunches.  Lunch options for grades preK-2 will be re-evaluated after nine weeks. 

• Health screening via an app
• Face coverings
• Carpool- students will be escorted by TCA employee from car to classroom
• Handwashing before entering classroom

• Face coverings should fit snugly but comfortably against the side of face.
• LS students are encouraged to wear an over-the-ear mask, however, face shields and gaiters are acceptable (at this time).
• Once at school, face covering will be clipped to a break-away lanyard provided for each student.
• Face coverings may be any solid color, plaid, pattern, camouflage, sports teams or clothing brand; no slogans, political statements or cartoon characters, please.
• If you are unsure about your face covering, please send picture to LS administration for approval.

At this time, families may choose a virtual learning option at levels 1-3. The family will commit to six weeks of virtual learning, and then re-evaluates at the end of time period (return to classroom or renew for another six weeks of virtual learning).

Expectations include:

• The classroom and specials teachers live-stream whole-group instruction, and the at-home learner must log-on during these scheduled times.
• Weekly live-stream guided reading lesson with small group.
• Grade-level teachers post assignments on SeeSaw, and at-home learners are required to complete on same due date as students on campus.
• Teacher/assistant will provide feedback to student on Seesaw.
• Teacher will check-in weekly with student who chooses this option.

At the Lower School level, this accommodation will require daily parent supervision and a strong parent-teacher partnership.
