Good Morning E.L.M. Families,

Happy Friday!

**Ski Families - In case you missed it. Berkshire East has offered to allow our skiers to use their passes on Friday, Feb. 25th to make up for the missed day two weeks ago. They will however, be unable to offer lessons on that date. Coach Facchetti will provide the passes to each student this afternoon.***

Next Week at a Glance:

Mon. 2/21 - President's Day

Tues. - 2/22 - No School

Wed. - 2/23 - No School

Thurs. 2/24 - No School

Fri. 2/25 - Ski Day at Berkshire East

* We will be back to full days on Fridays when we return from break.

* Help Wanted - We are in need of a new school bus monitor. Please contact my office if you or someone you know may be interested. This position will start after the February break. Thank you.

* The North Berkshire EMS will be hosting a Parent Presentation here at Emma Miller School on Tuesday, March 1st at 3:00pm. Please see the attached flyer for more information.

* In case you missed it...An email was sent on Wednesday outlining Emma Miller's transition to a new masking policy. The letter is attached below and this policy will go into effect on Monday, February 28th. Please note that while we will be transitioning to a masks optional policy, there will still be times when they will be mandatory. Masks must be worn in the health (nurse's office), on the school bus, and after a five-day quarantine period for a positive COVID case. A mask must be worn when returning on days 6-10.

Planning Ahead:

* The second trimester will end on Monday, March 7th. Report cards will go home on Monday, March 14th.

* After Care - We will also be allowing any changes to the After Care registrations beginning on Monday, March 7th. If you wish to drop, add or change your After Care registration, please let Miss Anderson know by that date.

Tentative MCAS Schedule: We appreciate families making plans around these dates, so we can avoid make up sessions. Thank you.

Math: May 10th, 11th, 12th

Have a great break!
