Distance Learning Continues to Start SY21-22 2nd Semester

 As a preventative measure, SFIS has decided to remain in Distance Learning for three weeks with on-campus, in-person classes resuming on Monday, January, 31, 2022. The supply chain and testing supply issues that impacted our planned return on January 9-10 will not prevent the return to campus on January 30-31. Mandatory student testing will occur with available testing kits. Information regarding student check-in and testing procedures is forthcoming.

Academic Program: Starting January 31, 2022

The Middle and High School Academic Programs will return to in-person instruction on January 31, 2022. Please contact your child’s specific academic program with any questions or concerns. 

In-Person Option: Students are automatically enrolled in this option. 

When a student is absent from school for a COVID-related issue, they must follow the SFIS COVID-19 Guidance Tree presenting proper documentation to excuse student absences. A student in this situation must follow the student handbook regarding absences and complete assignments posted on the Google Classrooms. Students may attend the online option if they are feeling well enough; however, students will still be marked absent and excused in NASIS. If your child is sent home by the school, absences will automatically be excused. All other absences need to be reported to the attendance counselor. 

Online Option: SFIS will continue to offer the short-term online option for Quarter 3. The continuation of this option after March 10, 2022 will be determined prior to Quarter 4. This option is not intended to replace in-person learning or services. Students attend virtual classes daily with their faces on camera and participate in each class period. To enroll students in the online option, parents must notify Admissions by Wednesday, January 26, 2022 at 4 PM. 


Extracurricular Activities / Sporting Events: Phase 1 starting January 17, 2022

Athletics returns to Phase One as of January 17, 2022 until further notice.
