Schools will remain closed to extra-curricular and athletic programs, and facilities use for enrichment programs or religious services is suspended at least through the month of June. We will reassess the ability to conduct these types of activities in July based on the status of the virus and what phase of re-opening we are in by then.

The Summer Fine Arts Theatre Workshop scheduled for June 2020 has been canceled due to the uncertainty surrounding the  Covid-19 pandemic, current CDC guidelines, and the closure of BPS schools for the month of May. This decision was made in partnership with the Phoenix Foundation of Central Florida, the funder of this program. Canceling the 2020 SFATW does not jeopardize next summer’s SFATW or Phoenix Foundation of Central Florida’s commitment to the program.

LATEST NEWS (Wednesday April 15, 1:30 p.m.)

 

April 24 to be instruction day; no meal service at schools 

Friday April 24 will be an instruction and learning day for BPS instead of a previously scheduled teacher-student holiday for schools.  

However, there will be no meal pick-up service for students on April 24because the day will remain a scheduled school holiday for BPS cafeteria staff.  Instead, those who pick up student meals at schools on Thursday April 23 will receive enough food in their packages for two days of breakfasts and lunches per child. 

The Brevard County School Board voted Tuesday to make Friday April 24 a “COVID-19 make-up day.”  Teacher and student activity should follow BPS’ continuity-of-instruction plan for remote learning. 

BPS will update staff and families as the state further advises school districts on make-up days and school closures.  The school district’s revised school-year calendar can be reviewed online HERE.

6. NEW PICK-UP WAIVER – The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services received a temporary waiver so that parents/guardians may pick up meals for their child(ren) due to extenuating circumstances.

Examples of valid forms of identification are the following: a student identification card, child’s birth certificate, child’s passport, government-issued child identification card, or a document proving parent/guardian identity and relationship to the child such as a hospital, religious, or day care record. To ensure social distancing, the parent should place the identification of each child not present in the windshield.

7. LUNCH MENU – The lunch menu has been expanded to include easy, heat and serve meals such as chicken tenders and pizza on various days.

8. MOBILE FEEDING – A mobile feeding plan is in the works. Information will be released when finalized.
