THURSDAY/FRIDAY: ATTENTION 7TH & 8TH GRADERS: SCHOOL/DISTRICT ISSUED CHROMEBOOKS: Bring your school/district issued Chromebook to school on Thursday/Friday. We will begin to deploy Chromebooks to 7th and 8th graders. Students who don't have a school/district issued Chromebook do not need to bring a device on Thursday/Friday.
BACKPACKS: Students should bring their backpack with them this week. They should bring their basic supplies, but they do not need to bring a personal device.
MY CHILD IS NOT RIDING A BUS: WHAT WILL DROP OFF/PICK UP LOOK LIKE: It is best to ride the bus if one has been assigned to you. The earliest drop off time will be 8:30 A.M. Dismissal will be staggered to avoid a crowd of students going to buses. Please be patient with this process! It will go slow at first, and no one should be in a hurry! Be respectful of school staff, students, and other members of the Watts community. There are over 20 buses, and a lot of other traffic to manage. Please review that traffic pattern map.
SCHOOL REOPENING INFORMATION FOR PARENTS: SAFETY PROTOCOLS: The health and safety of all staff and students is our number one priority. Our guiding safety priorities are the following: ●Face coverings are required. There are no exceptions.
