Just a reminder that with the cold temps coming, please send your kids ready to go outside. We watch the temps throughout the day and get them out to play when we can. Please send them with their labeled boots, coats, hats, gloves, etc. It is greatly appreciated!

We have a day off in Feb for Winter Break coming up soon as well. We are off on Feb 8.  Otherwise, not much else is planned right now. Have a wonderful weekend!

Our next early release is on Feb 5. We will be dismissing at 12:15 on Feb 5. If your child is a car rider, please be at school between 12:10 and 12:15 for pick up.  Food Service will be offering a sack lunch on early release days. Children can order a lunch with their teacher in the morning and will have them to take to their destination.

Help with Teacher Holiday Breakfast Sign Up

Happy Holidays Everyone! The PTC would love to provide a special breakfast for the teachers on Friday, December 18th before school begins. Give them a hearty breakfast to get through that last day before break. This year of course is a little different. We can’t provide the favorite egg dishes from home everything needs to be store purchased. Wondering if you could donate some items and drop off to my front porch on Thursday the 17th? Thank you so much for helping, definitely couldn’t do this without the parents of Georgetown! Thanks, Audrey Straub – PTC President

Here is the link to sign up. https://signup.com/go/MmVmGdy

Welcome back on Wednesday!!

We are so excited to welcome back our students to Georgetown! Our hallways have definitely been quiet these past few weeks and it will be awesome to have the kids back in the building.  Below is the latest information for what you need to know as we transition from remote learning back to in-person learning on Wednesday, December 9th.  Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me with any questions that you may have so we can ensure a smooth transition back to in-person learning for you and your child.  

Many thanks and gratitude to all of you during this trying year!

~Randy

 

  • Wednesday, December 9-Friday, December 18

COVID

  • If your child is positive for COVID-19 or has been quarantined for COVID-19 within the last week:
    •  It is important for parents to contact the office if your child has recently tested positive for COVID-19 or has been identified as a close contact with someone that has tested positive for COVID-19 recently.  
    • If your child fits either of these two scenarios, please notify our office as early as possible so we can work with you on your child’s return date for in-person learning and ensure that homework assignments are made available to your child to complete while they are out of school.  
    • GES Office Phone # = 616-797-9797 or email at mjeltem@hpseagles.net
  • Flowchart for Symptomatic Students: 
    • We will continue to follow the OCHD requirements listed on the linked flow chart for students that have symptoms and when to exclude a student from school due to the symptoms s/he is having.  

Technology

If you received a device from school, please hold onto it for the time being due to the uncertainty of COVID and what lies ahead.  We will not be collecting them at this time.

Have a great day and we look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!!
