A note from the principal… It’s Spirit Week at Needmore! As a way to celebrate homecoming at BNL this week we will have theme days at Needmore. The theme days are on page 2

of this newsletter. Dress up each day and join the fun! I will post pictures of

Spirit Week on our school Facebook and Instagram pages as well as on Bloomz.

Be on the lookout for some cute photos! Be creative for Face Covering Friday!

We do ask that outfits on Friday are appropriate for school.

Remember to sign up for Bloomz if you have not already done so. Our

teachers will be making classroom posts each week to keep parents connected.

Contact your child’s teacher for the code to join.

Be the good in the world,

Mrs. Petty

COVID UPDATES-PLEASE READ

New guidance from the Indiana Depart-ment of Health has stated that schools must follow these updated guidelines:

If a student or staff member has been in close contact to a COVID-19 positive person the student or staff member must quarantine for 14 days from the date of exposure before returning to school.

If a student is showing one or more COVID-19 symptoms he/she will be sent home from school. Next steps will be provided by the school nurse if a child is sent home for exhib-iting one or more symptoms. A doctor’s note will be required before the child can return to school.

Virtual learning will be available if a student is absent due to this new guidance.

Contact our nurse’s office with any questions. .
