As we prepare for our ability to reopen to in person instruction, we would like to encourage all families and all students to take advantage of the free flu shot clinic being offered by the Kings County Department of Public Health. There will also be free COVID-19 testing available at these locations as well. Please note that COVID-19 testing or the flu shot are not currently required for students and families, but when we return to in person instruction it will be very important to reduce our flu illnesses as the symptoms are similar to COVID-19 and result in lengthy quarantines from school. Mientras nos preparamos para regresar a la instrucción en persona, nos gustaría alentar a todas las familias y a todos los estudiantes a aprovechar la clínica gratuita de vacunación contra la gripe que ofrece el Departamento de Salud Pública del Condado Kings. También habrá pruebas de COVID-19 gratuitas disponibles en estos lugares. Tenga en cuenta que las pruebas de COVID-19 o la vacuna contra la gripe no se requieren actualmente para los estudiantes y las familias, pero cuando regresemos a la instrucción en persona será muy importante reducir nuestras enfermedades de la gripe ya que los síntomas son similares a los de COVID-19 y resultan en cuarentenas prolongadas de la escuela.

Monitoring attendance matters. When students show up to learn, they are more likely to be able to stay on-track, stay engaged & meet major educational milestones. Check out this great read via @educationweek: https://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2020/08/20/remote-learning-is-tough-for-many-students.html La asistencia es importante. Cuando los estudiantes se presentan para aprender, es más probable que puedan mantenerse encaminados, mantenerse comprometidos y cumplir con los principales hitos educativos. #AttendanceAwarenessMonth #AttendanceMatters #LUESDStrong #weareLUESD
