RE: Update on
Hubbard Avenue Elementary School Closure
Hello Families of Hubbard Elementary,
As you are aware, we have been dealing
with some facility issues at the school over the past two weeks. Your
patience throughout this time is much appreciated.
To date, several repairs have
been completed including work on the boiler system, which is required to get
the heat circulating once again.
There is, however, some
repair work that is still needed. Officials from the Department of
Transportation and Infrastructure are scheduled to check on the work on Tuesday,
February 16, in the morning. Additional cleaning and air quality tests
will also need to be done and reviewed.
This means:
- Students
will continue with remote learning on Tuesday, February 16, and
Wednesday, February 17. Please remember there is no school on Monday,
February 15 due to the Family Day holiday.
- Unless
there are any issues with the air quality test results or the progress of
the final tasks at hand, in-person classes will resume on
Thursday, February 18. We will let you know either way on Wednesday
afternoon.
Once again, I would like to thank you for your
continued patience as we work through this. Please know that
we always make these decisions with the safety and comfort of
our staff and students at the forefront. We are very appreciative of the efforts
of teachers, students, and families during this time of remote learning.
I will connect with you again on Wednesday
with an update.
Sincerely,
David McTimoney,
Superintendent, ASD-W
