Dear Chippewa Valley Parents and Students,

As we approach our end-of-the-school-year celebrations, we want to share an important update on masks.

In accordance with CDC and MDHHS guidelines, masks WILL NOT be required for parents or students attending high school graduation, 8th-grade awards ceremonies, 5th-grade completion ceremonies, and other school events taking place outdoors. While some may still want to wear a mask at these school gatherings, it will be strictly optional for our families.

We ask that parents and students adhere to social distancing wherever possible while attending these celebrations.

We look forward to sharing these events and recognizing these important milestones in your child’s academic career. It has been a long time since we have been able to gather as a school community to recognize the achievements of our students.

We look forward to celebrating with you!

Clinton Macomb Public Library has resources that we can share with our EL families. They had great information! Here is a brief summary for our students and parents for the summer to keep them engaged in reading!

If you do not want to wait for your scheduled day, you may also send it in or drop it off earlier.
