Fire update: Sierra House Elementary to relocate all grades Dec. 17-21
Submitted by paula on Fri, 12/07/2018 - 8:37pm
After further evaluation on their school restoration and cleaning plan, Belfor has asked Sierra House Elementary to be vacant starting the week of December 17.
This access with no students or staff present will facilitate clean up and reconstruction so that the job can be completed thoroughly and with integrity by the time school resumes after the Christmas break.
In order to accommodate Belfor, Sierra House Principal Karin Holmes has let those affected they will be moving all of students and staff to Al Tahoe Elementary School (the Lake Tahoe Boy's and Girl's Club site).
Since it is a much smaller school, adjustments to the school day will have to be accommodated so all students can fit in the facility.
From December 17-21, Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd graders will be in class from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. 3rd, 4th and 5th grade classes will attend school from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
All students on site will be served breakfast and lunch. Details regarding drop off, pick up, and bussing will be sent out on Monday, December 10.
In partnership with Lake Tahoe Unified School District and the Boys and Girls Club, Holmes said are able to accommodate free childcare for the families that need it due to the split schedule.
Please contact Tori in the front office at 530.543.2327 if in need of childcare for the week of changed school hours.
