Hello to all SES parents. Tomorrow is the start of the 2020 - 2021 school year. I just wanted to pass on a couple of items to you all so we are ready to go for tomorrow. 1. Please send your child with a water bottle. We have installed refillable water bottle stations in the school. 2. All 4th grade students will be required to wear a mask. If your child does not have mask we will have one available for them. The wearing of a mask is optional for our PK - 3rd grade students. 3. The doors will open at 7:15 AM for our students. I am sorry, but parents will not be allowed to enter the building. Pre-K students will be taken to their class, and their breakfast will be brought to them. K - 4th grade students will pick up their breakfast in the cafeteria then report directly to their classroom. 4. The school day will begin at 7:45 AM, and it ends at 3:35 PM. 5. If your child is a virtual student, and you do not have internet access you may access free WIFI from several different locations listed in the following link: https://docs.google.com/document/u/3/d/e/2PACX-1vTB0CzQrE1k0t1szb2E_1Gb8o4mFY1CHBcQvheAcPhV1bEy3E8FcapU7oQizx_Br_OpPPWl_OoUDwes/pub If you have an questions and/or concerns please email or call the principal at jlittle@somervilleisd.org or 979-596-1502.
