School Closure Communication

Jouett Students and Families,                                                                   March 16, 2020

We hope you and your family are safe and healthy during this ever-changing situation. As you may know, ACPS has been sending out communication to families regarding school closure.  I wanted to follow up with a few items, as well.  I also wanted to thank you all and the staff for remaining flexible and patient.  Everyone has done a wonderful job!

School Closure

●       Currently, all Virginia public schools are closed from March 16-March 27 due to the COVID-19 outbreak. 

●       Jouett will be open from 8:00 am - 4:30 pm on both Monday, March 16 and Tuesday, March 17 if your child needs to get belongings.  Medication can also be picked up from the main office by a parent/guardian.  

Instruction/Work

●       All work is review, optional and not graded over the school closure.

●       Some teachers may have reached out already regarding review work.

●       We also have packets of review work available in the main office for pick-up after noon on Monday and all day on Tuesday.

Check-In

●       During the school closure period, you can be expecting a check-in from a Jouett staff member (postcard, phone call, text, email, etc.) 

●       Please let us know if there is anything you need from us. 

Meals

●       The school division is in the process of creating a plan for meals and will be sending out communication shortly.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me at ajohnson@k12albemarle.org or the main office at 434-975-9320.

We look forward to seeing everyone again soon. 

Thank you,

Ashby Johnson, Principal
