					<description><![CDATA[Cleaning hands at key times with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% ethanol or 70% isopropyl alcohol content (if soap and water is not readily available) is one of the most important steps a person can take to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to those around you.

According to Delaware Department of Education Emergency Order regarding Regulation 817 Medications and Treatments, parents/guardians are not required to provide permission for their student to use hand sanitizer but can indicate to the school that their student is unable to use hand sanitizer or needs assistance with self-use of hand sanitizer.

Please let your School Nurse know if your student should NOT use hand sanitizer or will need assistance. Thank you!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[On Monday, August 17, 2020, the Seaford Board of Education voted to open our schools in a hybrid manner. Please note that those families who selected “100% Remote” on the questionnaire, will start the year as “100% Remote”. The district will work closely with the Delaware Division of Public Health to monitor the amount of community spread that is occurring with Covid-19. Each week, we will analyze these numbers which will help us in our decision making process. We all must do our part in order that employees and students stay healthy. Masks will be worn at all times. The best guidance to stay healthy is to wear a mask and to remain socially distant. Our custodial staff has done a great job acquiring all cleaning and PPE supplies needed for reopening. Our first priority as a district is to ensure the health and safety of our staff and students.

The first day of school for all students, 100% remote and hybrid, will be September 8, 2020. Principals will reach out to all families to share information specific to a child’s school.

 For the first marking period, as we instruct students in both 100% remote and hybrid models, the school day hours are as follows:
•	Preschool:  8:30 AM to 2:00 PM
•	West Seaford Elementary & Blades Elementary:  9:00 AM-2:30 PM
•	Fred Douglass Elementary & Central Elementary:  9:15 AM-2:45 PM
•	Seaford Middle School:  7:30 AM-1:00 PM
•	Seaford High School:  7:30 AM-1:00 PM

We are excited to get the 2020-2021 school year started.  Please be on the lookout for more information from your child’s school.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Who borrowed the Blue Jay? Help us solve the mystery this summer!
Students of Seaford School District Elementary Schools….we need your help! This summer, join us at the Blue Jay Summer Mystery Camp to help solve the case of the missing Blue Jay mascot!

We will be meeting once a week on Tuesdays at Blades Park and the Seaford Library for 6 weeks as we try to figure out which principal took the blue jay mascot, which school they took it to, and for what purpose. Each week, you will solve puzzles to receive clues, along with many fun mystery themed activities.

For every week that you show up, you will earn points, and these points can help you get an invitation to our final session which is sure to be packed full of fun and games as we find out the answer to the mystery of the missing blue jay!]]></description>
