Due to our late start date of the 2020-2021 school year, the Weiss School's Leadership Team has approved six make up days to our school calendar. The dates below have now become student instructional days.

 

 

As we begin our virtual classes, we understand that it will take time to log into each Zoom classroom each period. While students acclimate to their new schedules, we have adjusted the transition times to be every four minutes between classes. This time adjustment will not be officially changed on student schedules, so please use the times below to switch classes until further notice. We will send you an email when we adjust back to the original class times.

 

Since the Weiss School first opened its doors in 1989, the Board of Directors, Administration, and staffs' mission has been to offer the highest quality, gifted educational experience to all of our students. Collectively, we have and continue to strive and maintain a safe and nurturing environment in which all students can learn and thrive. In today’s society, we are all living in the most extraordinary of times with the impact of COVID-19, during which we continue to struggle with balancing the need to get our students back to school while also taking into context the overwhelming concern for their safety as well as their teachers.

Dear Weiss School Families,

 

I would like to thank you for the information you provided on the reopening survey. Your patience and trust throughout this process have kept me inspired this whole summer. The Weiss School Leadership Team has worked diligently this summer to develop a plan to ensure the safety, health, and welfare of our school community. Our reopening campus plan invests heavily in the critical levers of a safe return to campus, including a robust set of stringent health and safety measures. It is also a plan that is designed to allow The Weiss School to adapt to the changing conditions of the pandemic and still provide for the continuous education of our students. As conditions and guidelines continue to evolve and change, The Weiss School Leadership Team will monitor and update our plan accordingly. We ask that you remain flexible in this fluid situation.

Dear Weiss School Parents:

 

I would first like to take a moment to offer my continued best wishes for your families, and sincerely hope that all are doing well, staying healthy, and enjoying their well-deserved summer breaks. As we prepare for our return to school for the 2020-2021 school year, it is important to recognize the contributions from all Weiss School community members that allowed us to successfully navigate the unknown and unique situation we endured during the spring of this year. The flexibility and positive attitudes of our teachers, staff, parents, and students was inspiring during our need to turn to remote learning and allowed the excellence of education at The Weiss School to triumph over such unforeseen and extremely serious circumstances.

Dear Weiss School Families:

 

Please see The Weiss School Virtual Online Schedule below which begins, Monday, March 30, 2020 until further notice.  All Early Childhood – 8^th grade students have the opportunity to complete a Monday – Thursday full school schedule, which includes core courses (recommended) in the morning and elective courses (optional) in the afternoon. All STEAM and science lab classes will be incorporated within the core courses. Due to the large number of middle school elective courses that your child is enrolled in for the 2019-2020 school year, middle school students will unfortunately not be able to attend all “live” elective courses. We spread them out as much as possible during the week, however all courses will be recorded for those they will miss. Please look through your child’s weekly schedule and decide which ones they will attend “live” and which ones they will watch recordings. Also, if your child advances in a core course, they will also have to decide which class to watch “live” and which class they will watch the recordings. All teachers will be available on Fridays during their scheduled office hours to answer any questions.

Dear Weiss School Families:

 

We are holding daily meetings to discuss the continuously evolving situation of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and the potential impact that it may have in our local community. With Spring Break approaching, we are cognizant that many of our Weiss School families have plans to travel throughout the United States, and possibly to International countries, during this time. As a school community, it is critical that all of our Weiss School families and extended families consider the possible exposure to COVID-19 and we encourage you to please review the latest travel advisories from the CDC.

 

Within The Weiss School, administration and staff continue to proactively safeguard our school community by implementing the following steps:
