Dear Parents and Guardians,

Please see the attached letter regarding the district's decision to postpone the teaching of the Human Sexuality Units during this period of remote learning, K-12.

Also, as an update on graduation ceremonies for the class of 2020 I would like to thank Mr. Loprete, the high school administration, and the senior class advisors and officers for working collaboratively in planning the very best events for our students.

Mr. Loprete and I have been meeting regularly with town health and safety officials in order to determine the best plans for our graduates. As recently as last Thursday afternoon we received updated guidance from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education pertaining specifically to graduation ceremonies and we now need to take this latest information into consideration.

The group plans to meet tomorrow, May 27, 2020, and we hope to have additional details to communicate to the parents later this week.

For all other transitional grades our teachers and principals are also well aware of the importance of celebrating and recognizing our students and there are many things in place and in development as well for those students.

I hope that everyone is doing well and we continue to appreciate the support and efforts of our students, teachers, parents, support providers and our entire North Reading School Community.

Be well,

Dr. Daly
