Stewartsville C2 School Reopening Plan:
Hello Cardinal Families,
Since March 13, we have been busy making needed changes within the district to prepare us for reopening. The following list is a demonstration of items we have acquired or are in the process of purchasing to help with keeping all of us as safe as possible as we return to "The Nest."
ο Hand sanitizing stations throughout district facilities.
ο Installation of touchless paper towel dispensers (Lobby Restrooms)
ο Replacement of water fountains with bottle filling stations.
ο Purchased a hands-free sanitizing machine to be used in restrooms and cafeteria.
ο Purchased 2 state-of-the-art sanitizing guns with the capability of disinfecting classrooms, busses, and any public space in a matter of seconds.
ο Purchased a power mop to expedite the cleaning and sanitizing of classroom floors.
ο Purchased new lunchroom tables to allow for better control for the social distancing of students.
ο Replaced oversized tables in 3 high school classrooms to allow for social distancing.
ο Purchased germ screens for the protection of our lunch clerk and building secretary.
ο Redesigned the main entrance to create a protective barrier for students and staff.
ο Purchased protective facemasks and shields for staff members.
ο Remodeled our outdoor concession stand bathrooms to allow for easier cleaning and sanitizing.
ο Purchased disposable masks for visitors and students.
ο Constructing walkways for better control of before school drop off and after school pickup.

ο Removed over 20,000 lbs. of clutter from throughout the building.
This list will continue to grow as we move closer to reopening.
Along with the listed items, we have been working on a comprehensive reopening plan. The plan was designed based on the following three pillars.
1. Preparing for the safe return to school for all of our Cardinals.
2. Providing our students with engaging educational opportunities.
3. Promoting open lines of communication between all Cardinals.
Please understand it is impossible to develop a plan that takes into consideration every condition we may face during the coming school year. As such, the plan being presented may see additions or omissions made to it based upon information provided to us by our local, state, and national level officials and departments. We ask everyone to remain flexible with the district as we continue to navigate the constant changes of the Covid-19 pandemic and to please reach out to us with your questions or concerns. We much appreciate your patience as we are doing our best to ensure the most impactful learning experience for all students in the Stewartsville C2 School District.

We understand the excitement that is surrounding Kansas Cityβs Chiefs first Super Bowl parade in 50 years. However, the Stewartsville C2 School District will be open (weather permitting) when the Chiefs hold their celebratory parade tomorrow.

Thank you for your understanding and patience, and Go Chiefs!

Happy New Year Cardinals,
It is crazy to think we are now 20 years into the 21st century, but even crazier; we are about to begin the 2nd semester of the 2019-2020 school year. As we return to #TheNest, letβs remember the amazing opportunities we have presented to us daily. We have opportunities to engage in each otherβs lives positively, to impact those around us academically, socially, and emotionally. Finally, we have opportunities to decide how we are going to work through trials and tribulations. Interestingly though opportunity by itself does not guarantee success, it only guarantees opportunity. My challenge for each of us as we return to βThe Nestβ is to seize on our opportunities with 2020 vision and continue to have a mindset that says βYes I can,β and be prepared to push ourselves to be the best we can be not only for ourselves but most importantly our students. #TheCardinalWay #CardinalVictory

Dear Cardinal Families,
As we approach the winter months, we have begun planning for inclement weather. Almost every year, Stewartsville experiences a few days of very cold, icy, or snowy weather that necessitate closing or delaying school. Hopefully, we have a mild winter, but if not, we want you to be prepared ahead of time.
How do we decide to close school?
The decision to delay or close school is a careful decision informed by several factors, including temperature and wind chill, levels of snow and ice, road conditions, and how these conditions are forecast to develop over the day. A decision will be made the night before; however, this might not always be possible in such cases, the decision will be made between 5:00β6:00 a.m. the morning of the delay or closure. If school is canceled, all afterschool activates will also be canceled.
How is the public notified of school closings?
The best source of information is the Stewartsville C2 social media accounts: Twitter (@stewartsvilleC2), Facebook (@StewartsvilleMO), and our school webpage (https://www.stewartsville.k12.mo.us/). Information will also be shared using our text blast and voice call notification systems.
What does a 2-hour delay mean?
A delay causes schools to open two hours later than the normal start time (10:00 a.m.). The school will close at the regular time (3:10 p.m.). The school will not be open for students to enter until (9:15 a.m.). The buses will run normal routes on a two hour delay. Any before-school programs/practices/activities will be canceled. A limited breakfast will be served (cold cereal and milk) on 2-hour delay days. When the opening of school has been delayed due to weather, afterschool programs will operate as scheduled. (Preschool will not be in session on days we utilize a late start.)
What if inclement weather develops during the school day?
We open with the intent of remaining open for the full school day. Early dismissals are used only in extreme situations. In such cases, all afterschool activities will be canceled. If we need to close early, students will still be served lunch before dismissal.
When will school be made up?
State law requires us to have a minimum of 1044 hours of school per school year. Our 2019-2020 school calendar has been built with the intention of students attending school for a total of 1112 hours. What this means is in the case of a canceled day of school, late start, or early dismissal, we will not need to make up any time until we miss a total 68 hours or 10 days' worth of time. If we end up needing to make up hours/days, we will adjust the calendar as follows
β’ If we have to make up no more than a 1/2 day, May 20 will become a full day of school.
β’ If we have to make up no more than 1 Β½ days, May 20 and May 21 will become full days of school. *The Professional Development day for teachers will not be rescheduled.
β’ If we have to make up no more than 2 Β½ days, May 20, May 21, and May 22 will become full days of school. *The Professional Development day for teachers will not be rescheduled.
Sincerely,
Michael L. Stephenson
Superintendent
School Notification System TEST:
November, 13th @ 7:00pm
Over the past month, we have been working on updating our school text blast and our voice call notification system. We will be testing the system this evening at 7:00 p.m. If you do not receive the text message and/or the voice call, please contact the school tomorrow and provide us your contact information. We will then cross-reference your current contact information with the information we have in the system to find the issue. The text blast will come from 98901 and will read From#TheNest: followed by the message. The phone call will come from the schoolβs main phone line, 816-669-3258. When answering the call, you must speak into the phone for the messaging system to be activated.
