Open House Guidelines 2021-2022

Cabot Public Schools is aware of the growing concern in the rising number of COVID-19 cases. Just like last year, we also understand how important it is for students and parents to meet their new teacher(s) in person, visit their classroom(s), & tour their school for the upcoming year.

To ensure the safety of our students, staff, and parents, we are again implementing safety measures.

Safety Protocols & Requirements
*A maximum of 2 adults may accompany their student.
*One family will be allowed in a classroom at a time.
*It is imperative to arrive at your designated time (not early or late) to help avoid having extra people waiting in buildings.
*Families must remain socially distanced from other families during their open house visit.
*We ask that you only visit assigned classrooms this year.
*Your back to school information for returning students must be updated prior to open house. Emails to the guardian 1 listed in our system were sent out Wednesday, July 7th. Please check your junk mail or spam.

Open House Details
1st, 5th, and 9th graders will receive new Chromebooks this year. Please bring your old one to Open House on August 12th.  If not, it needs to be returned the first week of school. There is a possibility you could be charged for the device if it is not returned. New students will receive their Chromebooks the first few days of school.

As we recently announced, the district is providing all basic supplies for K-6 students. There is no supply fee. However, we are asking parents to purchase a $10 class t-shirt. You can pay by cash or check at Open House or you can purchase ONLINE now at: https://cabot.revtrak.net/

If your student requires medication at school, you may drop it off with your school nurse.
