Good Day,

We have made it to April Break - I hope that everyone is able to get some well deserved rest and relaxation while we are on vacation!

When we return to school on Monday, April 12th that will be the final week of quarter 3.  That Monday is a good time for students to check in with their teachers about missing assignments and to come up with a plan to make up work prior to grades being finalized.  The last day of quarter 3 will be on Friday, April 16th.

Q2 Honor Roll Recipients
I would like to thank Mr. Watson, our assistant principal, for putting together our honor roll celebratory video for quarter 2.  Please see the links below for all of our Q2 honor recipients at each grade level:
Grade 6
Grade 7
Grade 8

A Reminder About Spring Break Travel and COVID-19 Testing
It is important to stress the importance for all of us to continue to practice mitigation strategies including washing hands, wearing masks and being mindful of social distancing.  Keeping up with these safety measures is important, even after we are vaccinated, to ensure the safety of not just ourselves, but everyone around us as well.  For anyone traveling during April Break, staff and students alike, we recommend you get tested for COVID-19 before returning to school.  Go to the city website for the most up-to-date information on testing locations.  We also want to remind families that if your child is tested for COVID-19, they should remain at home while awaiting test results.  All positive results should be reported to our school nurse (Edyta Lukasiak: elukasiak@stamfordct.gov) with me copied on the email as soon as possible.

COVID Cases for the Week of March 29th - April 2nd

New Positive Cases Number of Rippowam Community Members Quarantined

Be safe this week and enjoy your time off!  I will see everyone after break on the 12th.

Best regards,

Matthew Laskowski
