     A Note from Deanne Somers, Superintendent    
  
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to our INCREDIBLE Noecker School teachers and staff who have made this year so positive and productive for our students! All have JUST KEPT SWIMMING all year long! Thank you, also, to our families who have helped celebrate this special week! Voltaire said, “Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well.”
Noecker School is a true community. Thank you for your partnership! Appreciation all around! 💗
         A Note from Raul Sandoval, Principal  
I know I speak for everyone when I say that we are so appreciative. Thank you to our HSA for all of the creative and delicious treats for staff appreciation week. We still have two more days of being spoiled! As we head into the weekend we also want to wish all of the amazing moms a very Happy Mother’s Day! You do so much that one day is not enough to recognize all that you do.
       We will be offering in-person summer programming for students, which includes enrichment classes, ESY, and our kindergarten program.  All programs will be from    July 6th to July 30th, Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm   .  We will send a separate e-blast for families with information about classes and how to register!

A Note from Richard Celebre, Supervisor of Special Services
As many of you know, this week is Teacher Appreciation Week . I would be remiss if I did not take advantage of this platform to acknowledge all of the hard work and care that our entire Special Education Team puts forward every day supporting our students and their families. Thank you all, again and again, for everything you do.
Last week, we concluded our April Autism Acceptance Month Programming with our traditional Walk-A-Thon, where we charted the students laps by grade level during their PE classes.
    
I wanted to also remind everyone that our Special Services Google Site has a tremendous amount of parent resources and information, including the SPAN Resource page .
Finally, we are moving along with preparations for our in-person Extended School Year (ESY) program. Parents of eligible students will be notified by their case managers, so be on the lookout for those correspondences or conversations at upcoming annual review meetings. More information will be forthcoming once we have our plans finalized.
      SPRING STUDENT HEALTH COMMITMENT     verifies that you are aware of the travel guidelines and that your child has NOT traveled within the last 14 days, that your child has not been exposed to a positive individual or someone waiting for test results, and that your child does NOT have COVID symptoms. Please see the     form        or the     COVID-19 FAQ & Dashboard     for additional information.  
     Important Notes From the School Nurse  
It is IMPERATIVE that any student who has been exposed to a positive person, traveled outside of the immediate area, is in a household with a symptomatic person, OR has any COVID symptoms (see below), not attend school.
Quarantine timelines vary depending upon exposure, test results, and travel, so please communicate promptly and contact Nurse Noronha for assistance.
| Please keep your child home, including siblings , if he/she has any COVID-19-like symptoms or has been exposed. If someone in the house is being tested, household members should likewise remain home until the test results come back and next steps can be determined. Thank you! | |
