 ANNOUNCEMENTS:

• NEW PROTOCOL:  If anyone in your immediate household has been exposed to Covid-19 or is awaiting the results from a Covid-19 test, please refrain from sending your children to school until a negative test result is received.  Thank you for your support and cooperation in this matter.

• SCHEDULE CHANGE: There has been a change in the school calendar for October. There will be no early dismissal on Wednesday, October 21; instead there will be NO SCHOOL on Friday, October 23. 

• EXCITING NEWS: We are very pleased to announce that waiver to extend the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) Seamless Summer Option (SSO) has been extended, through the Secretary of Agriculture, for the purpose of providing meals under the Child Nutrition Program.  

This means that ALL New Life Christian Academy students will receive FREE breakfast and lunch throughout the remainder of the school year (2020-2021).  This will go into effect on Thursday, October 14, as we received the information this morning. 

In the event that we should move to virtual/remote learning, meals will be available for pickup at the school.  We will send out information about pick-up times if this occurs.

We are thankful to be included in this operative and hope that your child will take advantage of the meals.  To reiterate, after your current balance is paid, you will not receive lunch/breakfast bills for the remainder of this school year as part of a Covid-19 relief program.

UPCOMING TESTS:  (subject to change based on class needs) 

• October 20 - Billy Sunday Vocabulary Test; Math Test 

• October 21 - Spelling List 3 Test
