HOLIDAY GUIDANCE
With the holiday season approaching, I want to invite us all to make responsible and sometimes difficult choices to keep ourselves and our families well. Remember, at Northwest, our safety protocols are designed with the most vulnerable members of our community in mind, and I ask us to consider these folks as we make decisions about how we operate when we are outside the building. You can find guidance from the CDC here.
Thank you in advance for continuing to prioritize safety both personally and professionally for the benefit of our entire community.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and stay safe!
2020-2021 UNIFORMS
YES Prep will waive the uniform policy for students for the entire 20-21 school year. YES Prep understands the COVID-19 pandemic has created or increased the economic challenges our families face. Students will follow the “free dress” policy as outlined in the Individual Campus Supplement (español).
