Pirate Nation,
On Jan. 4, 2021, Bristow Public Schools will return in our “Distance Learning” format through Jan. 8, 2021. During this distance learning week, please communicate any COVID-19 cases or quarantines impacting your student to their school site.
Boxed meals will be provided on January 4, 2021. Each child, ages 18 and younger, will be given a free meal box with seven days’ worth of breakfast and lunch meals. We hope all eligible children will take advantage of this opportunity and pick up your child’s meals.
Our Child Nutrition Department will distribute the meal boxes between the hours of 10:00 am-12:00 pm at the following sites: First Baptist Church parking lot, Cape Drive parking lot, Edison Elementary cafeteria, Bethel Park, South Acres, Slick, Bristow Village Apartments, and L.T.D. Apartments.
We look forward to a successful spring semester with your students. BPS appreciates the patience and grace shown to our staff members during the fall semester. Together, as a community, we will push through this pandemic. Keep masking up, washing your hands, and watching your distance. We can see the end of the pandemic in the near future.
