Dear TCS Families,
You did it! Thank you so very much for all your patience and support as we got our remote learning program up and running for Kindergarten through grade 5. It was so wonderful to see everyone’s faces smiling and enjoying the interactions with their classmates and teachers. If you wouldn’t mind taking a few moments to complete the attached survey, your feedback is extremely important to us so we can adjust our instruction going forward to meet everyone’s needs at home.
In person learning begins on Monday for those who are choosing to return to school. There have been many changes to reduce exposure and increase safety for everyone returning to the school building. Backpacks and refillable water bottles are recommended for student belongings. Backpacks should only contain materials necessary for the day including masks, a reusable water bottle, and lunch, if desired. Younger students may also include an extra set of clothing.
The following information provides an overview of the new procedures for arrival and dismissal, breakfast and lunch, mask breaks and recess, and cohorts and teams. Please read this information carefully prior to filling out the attached survey.
Arrival – Bus stops and times have been posted on the TCS website. Both busses are due to arrive at the school at 8 a.m. During the first week of school, we ask that you wait until 8:05 before coming to school to drop off your child(ren) to avoid congestion and allow the busses to enter and exit safely. For drop off, you will enter the main entrance and drive around the parking lot, please stay to the right. You will pull up to a cone where a staff member will be waiting for you. Please do not get out of your car. We will assist your child out of the vehicle and direct them to their assigned area. In order to keep traffic and exposure to others to a minimum, we ask that you do not park or walk your child to their assigned spot. If your child has difficulty exiting your car, we will direct you to a parking spot for additional assistance. Please do not drive by the busses when their lights are on and/or the stop sign is extended.
Dismissal – Bus riders will be dismissed first at 2:45 p.m. For students being picked up, in your materials packet that you picked up yesterday or today, you will find a laminated sign with your student’s last name. Please put this sign inside your windshield on the passenger side for picking up your child(ren), who will be waiting in their assigned spot inside. This will make pick-up run more efficiently as we radio for your child(ren) so they can exit directly from the building and to your vehicle. Please do not exit your car. We will assist your child(ren) into the vehicle. We appreciate your patience as we work through this new procedure.
Breakfast – This year, school breakfast is free to all. Each morning, students may eat breakfast in their classrooms upon arrival from 8:05 - 8:25 a.m. Students who would like breakfast should arrive as close to 8:05 as possible, but not before (unless riding the bus). Breakfast must be finished by 8:25 to allow for cleanup prior to morning meeting. Breakfast options are as follows:
Mondays– Cereal, fruit, cheese stick, milk
Tuesdays – Breakfast sandwich, juice, milk
Wednesdays – Bagel, cream cheese, juice
Thursdays – Granola bar, hard-boiled egg, juice, cheese stick
Fridays – Granola, yogurt, Craisins, juice.
Breakfast will be provided in paper bags and there will be no substitutions or changes to the options at this time. Please complete the survey regarding breakfast for your child(ren).
Lunch – School lunch is free for all students this year. Upon entering the classrooms in the morning, your child(ren) will make their lunch choice. Their options are the main lunch choice, the alternative, or lunch from home. Water will be available to everyone. Students will wash their hands prior to eating and hang their masks on the hooks attached to the side of their desk or lunch table. To start the year, students will eat lunch with their cohorts as follows: Kindergarten and Grade 5 will eat in their classrooms or outside (weather permitting), and Grades 1 & 2, and 4 will eat lunch in the cafeteria, over three 25 minute lunch periods, with at least 6’ physical distance. Please see the attached Lunch Menu for the month.
Recess – Students will have a staggered 30-minute recess this year following lunch. They will sanitize their hands prior to going to their recess space. Playground equipment will be accessible with 6’ physical distancing and masks. Students will be allowed to play a game with a ball (i.e., soccer, kickball). All equipment and balls will be disinfected between uses. Students will promptly wash their hands upon re-entering the building.
Mask Breaks – Students will be able to take a mask break outside or inside with windows and doors open (plus air purification systems) and with 6’ physical distance. Hooks are provided on the sides of all desks, lunch tables, and outside benches to hang masks on while eating or taking a break. Students must wash or sanitize their hands prior to taking on/off their masks.
Cohorts – Each grade level is its own cohort, except for grades where the in-person number of students is smaller than 10, as is the case with grades1 & 2 to start this year. Our cohorts range in size from 14-18 students.
Teams – Each cohort has a team of teachers that may consist of the general classroom teacher, an academic support or special education teacher, an educational assistant, and a specialist. These teams of teachers remain with their cohort to reduce exposure between cohorts.
Schedule – The in-person schedule mirrors the remote learning schedule. Specials will be offered daily as follows: Monday – Art; Tuesday/Thursday – P.E.; Wednesday – Music; and Friday – Spanish. Please remember to wear sneakers to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays for P.E.
This information pertains to students in Kindergarten through Grade 5. Information specific to Preschoolers will be provided next week in anticipation of their return on October 5th.
Afterschool Program - It is with sadness that I share we will not be able to offer our Truro Afterschool Program for Students (TAPS) to start this year. Once the school programs are up and running, we will re-evaluate the possibility of potentially providing afterschool care to students of families who need childcare in order to work. Please complete the attached survey questions regarding TAPS for future planning. I am sorry for any inconvenience this causes your family and we will do our best to establish a program for working families as soon as possible.
School Council – The school council is a group consisting of the School Principal, parents of students attending the school, teachers, and community members, whose responsibility is to meet regularly with the principal; to assist in the identification of the educational needs of the students; review of the annual school budget, and in the formulation of a school improvement plan. If you are interested in being a part of our school council, please indicate your desire on the attached survey.
Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC) - Every public school district in Massachusetts is required to establish a SEPAC. A SEPAC is a public body, which serves as an adviser to the School Committee on matters that pertain to the education and safety of students with disabilities. In addition, the SEPAC has a duty to meet regularly with school officials to participate in the planning, development and evaluation of the district’s special education programs. The SEPAC is a self-governing body (creates its own by-laws and operational procedures) and is open to all parents of children with disabilities and other interested parties. A SEPAC is different from a PTA, PTO or School Council – it does not represent families from one school, but serves all families of children with special needs from the entire school district. If you are interested in being a part of our SEPAC, please indicate your desire on the attached survey.
Next week, you will receive more in-depth information regarding school at TCS this year, including more health and safety protocol information. Please take a few minutes to complete the attached survey. Your feedback is extremely important to us. Click here to complete the survey.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. We are looking forward to seeing all of you next week in school and online!
Have a great weekend,
Stephanie

Final comprehensive reopening plan - Truro Central School
A. Executive summary
Truro Central School is a single-school elementary district. Our enrollment, 110-115 students in preschool through grade 6, is well-served by a building designed to house as many as 150 students.
Our planning is based on the return to in-person education of as many of our students as parents wish to send to school.
Our remote learning plan is based on the possibility that circumstances will require that in-person instruction may be suspended for some period this year, and require that all students be taught remotely. This plan also will serve those students whose parents choose not to send their children to in-person instruction.
Our hybrid plan recognizes that the enrollment (small) and the facility (more than adequate to serve 115 students, socially distanced) make hybrid unlikely. The plan is provided in recognition that the unprecedented characteristics of the pandemic may create needs we do not presently anticipate.
Our plan to reopen is to begin with ten days of professional preparations for staff, as required by DESE, from September 1-16. On Sept. 17, we will begin remote learning for all. This is to ensure that remote learning is well-established when we bring in-person students to school; to prepare everyone for the possibility of remote learning for all, should the virus spike at some point; and to allow an extra ten days to monitor transmission on Cape Cod, after the summer tourist season.
On September 28, we will begin in-person instruction. Surveys of parents’ expectations suggest that two-thirds to three-quarters of our students will attend. The majority of those children will be transported by their parents, allowing our two existing bus routes to serve those who need transportation to and from school.
B. Letter from the superintendent to the community, including the district’s selection for the reopening model it will use to begin the school year.
August 10, 2020
Dear Parents, Caregivers, and Townspeople:
As you may have heard, the state has asked every school district to prepare three plans for the coming school year: in-person learning at school; remote learning at home; and a combination of the two, called “hybrid”. We have been asked to select one of these to be our preferred choice.
At its first August meeting, the Truro School Committee voted to support the following plan:
September 17 – begin instruction remotely for all students.
September 28 – begin in-person instruction at Truro Central.
In-person instruction will be provided with masks on everyone, at least from second grade up. Children’s seats will be 6 feet apart. We will wash our hands, or at least use hand sanitizer, frequently. We will redesign the daily schedule to keep students and staff as safe as possible, from the moment they get on the bus, until they leave in the afternoon. We’ll spend as much time outside as possible, where the air on Cape Cod circulates constantly. We are committed to creating the safest possible learning environment, convinced that in-person contact with our students is best for children and their families.
You will get a survey in a day or so inviting you to choose either remote or in-person for the coming year, and provide us other information that will help us get ready for beginning a new school year. We need to know your hopes and expectations to move ahead with our planning, because healthy buses and classrooms can hold only so many children. We can plan adjustments as we move through the year, depending on the number of children who join us at school, but making those plans takes time. Please take a few minutes when you get the survey, so we can make the best plans for your children.
We’ll be sending more information regularly over the next month. If you have questions, remember our email reopening tcs@truromass.org. Thank you all for being part of the wonderful community that is Truro Central School!
Best,
Mike Gradone, Superintendent
P.S. Stay safe!
C. In-person learning model:
Truro Central School has sufficient space available to maintain social distancing guidelines and all Covid-19 safety protocols to allow all students in grades PK-6 to return to in-person instruction for fall 2020. Modifications will include the removal of furniture and materials to allow 6 feet of social/physical distance for students and staff in each instructional setting. Student supplies and instructional tools for students will be in individual storage containers assigned for specific student use only. In addition, we have an outside classroom and exterior space outside of all classrooms for small group instruction weather permitting. The school will work with the Truro Department of Public Works to install canopies to enhance our outside learning areas. We are able to reassign teaching staff as needed to provide whole group instruction, small group instruction and individual instruction for all students based on the MA Curriculum Frameworks and Standards 1-4 of the MA Teacher Evaluation Rubric while adhering to DESE Covid-19 safety requirements. Our largest cohort of students is 18. The room that will house the 18 students and staff member is adjacent to a science room that can be repurposed for use as a satellite space for some of the 18 student cohort to lower class size to ensure social/physical distancing. Student cohorts will remain together for all instruction unless an IEP mandates a different approach. Student cohorts will have lunch and recess together. We will adjust instructional schedules to lessen the amount of student movement and transitions throughout the building. Each instructional day will include a time scheduled for teaching/reteaching of safety protocols including social/physical distancing, wearing masks in school, hand washing, and not coming to school if not feeling well. Families will be reminded regularly of these health/safety protocols. We also have two full time custodians who have been working closely with the Truro Health Department to implement COVID-19 cleaning and safety protocols. The custodians will adhere to all safety protocols as they clean and disinfectant all areas of the building on an established schedule. TCS has a full time nurse and a designated isolation room for any student or staff member exhibiting any symptoms of Covid-19.
D. Hybrid learning model:
As noted in the In-Person Model we can accommodate all students at TCS and meet or exceed all DESE Covid-19 safety protocols. We would only consider the hybrid model if the state mandated it, or if some unique circumstance suggested a significant portion of our students should stay out of school for a substantial period of time. The TCS Hybrid would be based on dividing the student population in half; into Group A and Group B. Group A students would attend in-person school on Monday and Tuesday. Group B students would attend in-person school on Thursday and Friday. Wednesdays would be used to invite at-risk students to receive additional interventions to facilitate a greater level of achievement; for deep cleaning; and for remote instruction for all. The at-risk students would be determined by the Director of Student Services, based on IEPs and assessment results. Siblings will be assigned to the same groups. We would reassign teaching staff to meet the In-Person and Remote instructional needs of all students. Each grade level will be assigned a classroom teacher, a remote teacher and an educational assistant to provide each student/family with daily check-ins and meet the academic and social/emotional learning needs of each student/family. In–Person would be based on information provided previously in the In-Person Model Descriptor in this document and Remote instruction during Hybrid would be similar to the Remote Model Descriptor that follows in this document.
E. Remote learning model:
The TCS Remote instructional model will be based on the MA Curriculum Framework for Digital Literacy as well as all other MA content specific Curriculum Frameworks. Each student will be provided with a digital device. Each staff member involved in instruction will be provided with a digital device. Administrators will assign staff to create a learning model that consists of a grade level classroom teacher, a remote teacher and an educational assistant to ensure that each student has daily check-ins and differentiated learning supports to increase student participation, engagement, accountability and academic as well as social/emotional growth. Staff members will have scheduled times to collaborate remotely or safely in-person for professional development to support improvement in remote instruction and student outcomes. Administrators will support teachers with additional technology if needed to increase rigor and accessibility in the TCS Remote Learning Model. The administrative team has created an administrative position supporting Remote Instruction to design professional development, select technology, train staff on digital platforms and provide input on synchronous and asynchronous remote instruction. Collaboration will include time to review progress monitors, analyze data and devise interventions to increase student achievement. In addition, the remote learning model will align with standards 1-4 in the MA Teacher Evaluation Rubric. Administrators will communicate with families on a regular basis via email, phone calls, videos and virtual meetings when appropriate. Attendance and accountability will be documented by features within the digital platforms of Seesaw and Google Classroom. The Seesaw Remote Platform will be used in grades PK-2. Google Classroom will be used in grades 3-6. Whole group instruction, small group instruction and individual instruction as well as assessment and feedback will be supported and enriched with additional online resources and hard copy materials including:
Google Meets
Flipgrid
Office hours
Epic Digital Reading Library
Reading A-Z
Zoom
Screencastify
Lexia
Khan Academy
IXL
Accelerated Reader
News ELA
Video lessons
Consumables for reading and math
Ebooks
Books
F. Out-of-school time plan: Not applicable.
G. Student supports and professional learning:
Truro Central School currently has 46% of its students (PK-6) who fall into the high needs category. In the spring during remote learning, we supported these students in many ways. Due to our very small size (114 students), we were able to accommodate each high needs student individually.
In all three reopening models, we have grade level teams that consist of general and special educators who collaborate to design individual remote learning plans for each of our high needs students so that we may continue to meet each student's individual needs. These teams meet weekly to review progress and adjust instruction. In addition to what all students receive, high needs students have individual remote learning sessions via Google Meet one to four times a week with an educational assistant or general/special educator to support access to the curriculum and to become fluent using remote learning applications and tools. In addition, for the remote learning and hybrid models, we will provide consumable materials to all students so they have access to the same materials at home and in school.
In regards to our safety, wellness, and social emotional supports, we have a full-time school social worker as well as a full-time nurse on staff who will work with the Principal and PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) team to create, follow, and post health and safety protocols and signage; provide training to staff and students on these protocols and systems within the building; create and support the implementation of lesson plans on new systems and routines at school; and monitor the social emotional well-being of staff and students and provide support in a multitude of ways.
Last week, our school committee approved the creation of three positions to support the Acting Principal. One position will support the Acting Principal in overseeing the implementation of in person instruction, including health and safety protocols, student transportation procedures, scheduling, staff assignments and duties, student supports, parental communication, and other aspects of in person instruction. Another position will support the Acting Principal in the design and implementation of Remote Learning, including online platforms, academic content, technical matters, and the management of student participation and family communication. The third position will be a special education team chair who will monitor the special education process, conduct meetings, communicate with families and staff, and maintain compliance with IDEA and OCR regulations. All three positions will support the selection, design, and presentation of appropriate professional development, prior to the beginning of the student year, and as the school year unfolds. In addition to the state-mandated ten days prior to the beginning of the school year, the Truro Central calendar includes an additional five days of professional development activities.
A re-opening committee consisting of the Superintendent, Principal, Director of Student Services, Social Worker, School Nurse, our Board of Health agent, Custodian, and several teachers has been meeting since June to determine how to safely re-open the school to allow students to attend in-person, or remotely. As part of this process, we will consider how instruction, assessments, and interventions will be conducted this fall. In regard to special education evaluations, we will follow health and safety protocols to provide a safe environment for in-person evaluations. Our remote learning assistant will be exploring ways to safely and effectively conduct universal screening assessments in the remote learning environment.
Our school committee approved the proposed school year calendar to amend with the following information:
September 1-16 - Ten professional development days for teachers and staff.
September 17-25th - First day of school - remote only for all students
September 28th - First day of in-person instruction, remote learning for those who choose continues.
H. Other:
I. Certification of health and safety requirements:
The administration and School Nurse meet weekly with the Town Health Agent to determine how best to implement DESE’s health and safety requirements. When students return to in person education in late September, Truro Central will be in full compliance with all requirements, including social distancing, masks, hand hygiene, cleaning, and disinfecting.

There are 25 different keepsakes to choose from including t-shirts, cutting boards, mugs, note cards, puzzles, and ceramic tiles. Not only do you or someone you love receive a beautiful piece of art, but Truro Central School's Art Program receives 20% of each purchase! Great gifts for friends and family! You can also register and leave comments for students!
