EHS students and families,

First, I would like to commend all our students for an excellent start to the school year.  Despite a number of new procedures, our student body rose to the occasion and is doing an excellent job adapting to all the adjustments.

I’d like to provide an update on our cleaning procedures at EHS. We have had a few instances of parents and students reporting that clothes were discolored due to the disinfectant we are using.  This has prompted questions about whether or not we are using bleach.  So that we are all on the same page, EHS is not using bleach as our disinfectant.  Instead, we are using a much safer product, VitalOxide.  This product, if not completely dry, may cause discoloration of fabrics.  Because the product needs to “dwell” for 10 minutes before it is wiped down, we have asked teachers to apply the product at the end of each class.  After each class is an 8-minute period of passing time.  This means that students entering class may have to wait 2 minutes at the start of each period before touching desks or surfaces.   Teachers have been reminded to make sure surfaces are properly dried.   When possible, we are encouraging teachers to rotate desks and seats between periods to minimize the chance of the product not drying.  All staff using this product have been trained on how to use it safely and effectively.  Students are welcome to wipe down their areas at the start of class as a precautionary measure.

You can view an informational video on this product and its use here: http://www.enfieldschools.org/parent_support/hasv/cleaning

We thank you for your patience and understanding as we work with a number of new protocols and procedures.

Sincerely,

Erin E. Clark

Principal

Attn. Enfield High School students & families,    

As you know, Tuesday, September 8th is the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL! Whether students are joining us from home or in person, we are really looking forward to seeing everyone again.  Please be aware that we have never taught in a hybrid model before, and this will be a huge test for our technology and Wi-Fi network.  Despite our best efforts to prepare, we may experience some technical difficulties during our first week.  In the event a remote student is unable to login to Teams, please email your teacher and copy your dean of students to let them know you are having difficulty. (Staff email addresses can be found here: http://enfieldhigh.sharpschool.com/staff_contacts/staff_e-_mail_address )  Please specify the problem you have so we can help put you in touch with the appropriate person to help solve your problem.  We will do our best to help solve problems as swiftly as possible. We are asking for patience and understanding as we try something that has never been done before.   

We want to provide a few updates and tips to make your first day as seamless as possible:
