Viking View

Dear Viking Parents,
Albright Middle School's Grading Committee worked this summer to update our grading policy. We shared this at our Curriculum Night, but we know everyone could not make it. We also want to go into more detail about the changes you will see, so here is a video explaining everything: https://watch.screencastify.com/v/e6oV5Bnv3SP90u089S0V

The presentation shared in the video is also attached below. If you have any questions about grading, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you,

Grading Committee Parent Presentation

Sincerely,
Ms. Aulisa

This year, we must return to paying for meals through e-Pay and seeing balances through Skyward. Breakfast costs $1.65 per meal, and lunch costs $3.40 per meal. If you feel like you may qualify for the standard free/reduced meal program, please ask for a form from our office. Breakfast will be available in the cafeteria each morning. If your child would like to have breakfast, please have them enter the cafeteria doors any time after 7:30am and they will eat in the cafeteria.

Lunch is available through our hot food line, and students have daily choices. Our menus are posted on our website and in our Salt Creek 48 app. Please remind your children to only take meals and milk you approve of. This is a shift since meals have been free, and I want us to avoid surprise balances. We also do NOT accept lunch deliveries from outside vendors or daily (multiple days in a row) lunch drop off from parents. This becomes a safety issue in the building and we want to keep everyone safe. Try to do a daily reminder to pack a lunch or if you are buying a lunch fill up your lunch account at the end of each week.

COVID-19 vaccines are now recommended for children ages 6 months and older! To find more information on the vaccine, including WHERE you and your child can get vaccinated, visit the following link: https://www.dupagehealth.org/667/COVID-19-Vaccine

Reminder: If your child has been fully vaccinated, please email a photo of your child's vaccination card to the school nurse at verickson@saltcreek48.org or upload it directly to Skyward. This information will be kept in their confidential health file. Thank you for your continued help in preventing the spread of the virus!

• Students who return to school after 5 days of isolation will need to be masked for additional 5 days to complete the 5+5 quarantine.

• Physical distancing is no longer required.

• Students will not have to sit at separate lunch tables.

• Students can be unmasked outside during recess times.

• If a parent or sibling tests positive, the child is still allowed to school as long as asymptomatic - recommend masking, but not required**

Thanks!
