COVID-19 INFORMATION FOR FAMILIES

Health and Safety Protocols

Mask Guidance:

Masks are not required. This is in accordance with Metro Nashville Public Schools. We will continue to offer masks to anyone who would like to wear one, as well as rapid testing for students who are symptomatic. 

We ask that you continue to partner with us by monitoring symptoms and keeping sick students at home. Please reference this guide:
