View this email in your browser A Note from the Principal I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!  Could you please do me a favor? We have only had 20 parents fill out our parent survey. This  is important because it gives our team real feedback that will help us plan for the new school year. PLEASE fill out the parent survey if you have not done so already: https://ousurvey.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5sVnk7T3iwDf3xk Just a reminder: If someone in your home has COVID, PLEASE keep your students home. Let us stay vigilant, healthy, and in school! FYI: The department of health has reduced their requirement for quarantine from 10 days to 5 days with a negative test after the 3rd day. IF there is a positive case in your child's classroom they can stay on campus IF (1) they are vaccinated or (2) they have recovered from COVID in the last 90 days or (3) they tested negative with us on Monday at school.  We still have about 50 boxes of chocolate left in the office. Stop by if you can sell one or two for us!  After our parent meeting, I spoke to our Choicelunch representative. She asked me to share the customer service options with you and encourages all parents with any issue to reach out:   - Get help directly through the app using the HELP function.  There are FAQ's and a direct support submission option.  - Contact us directly through the website.  If they scroll down to the bottom and click CONTACT US which will pop up a message box and they can follow the prompts.  - Families can call in directly to 855-465-8624 and leave a message that creates a ticket where CS will call back asap.  - Finally, we welcome them to email us at support@choicelunch.com.  REMINDERS:: -Dance Class: Free every Monday & Thursday from 3-4pm.
