Reopenning Update 7/31/20

Dear KMS Families,

About an hour ago, we received confirmation that Vermont State Governor Phil Scott’s Directive 6 - Uniform School Reopening would apply to KMS. The directive states, “all public schools and independent schools shall be opened for in person or remote classroom instruction on, but not prior to, Tuesday, September 8, 2020 in accordance with the health and safety guidance issued by VDH and the Agency of Education.” The rationale for this order can be reviewed in this press release from the Governor’s Office.

While KMS remains prepared to move forward with our original reopening plan, we are reviewing the order and assessing what adjustments may be required. We will provide an update on Wednesday, August 5, outlining any changes. Students should keep their scheduled COVID-19 viral tests, or hold on scheduling any tests until the communication next week.

KMS greatly appreciates your flexibility, patience and partnership as we navigate this ever-changing situation.

Sincerely,

Claire Kershko

Head of School
